6181/#9381 Ethernet/Ieee 802.3 Ioa (10 Mbps); 2624 Storage Device Controller Spd - IBM i series Handbook

#5544
1 When Operations Console is selected, a #0328 Operations Console Cable (6m) must also be ordered.

#6181/#9381 Ethernet/IEEE 802.3 IOA (10 Mbps)

The #6181/#9381 feature provides a single attachment to one Carrier Sense Multiple
Access/Collision Detect Local Area Network. It consists of an adapter card and internal code,
which supplies Ethernet Version 2 and IEEE 802.3 Media Access Control (MAC), plus IEEE
802.2 Logical Link Control (LLC) functions. The #6181/#9381 is capable of operating in half
or full duplex mode at a speed of 10 Mbps.
The #6181/#9381 has an RJ-45 connector and a 15 pin D-shell connector for attachment of
customer supplied cabling. An AUI Ethernet cable or RJ-45 twisted pair cable must be
ordered separately. Cabling must meet or exceed Industry Standard EIA/TIA T568B.
The #2629 LAN/WAN/Workstation IOP is a prerequisite for the #6181. It uses one IOA slot
and no I/O card slots.

#2624 Storage Device Controller SPD

The #2624 Storage Device Controller supports the ¼-inch cartridge and 8mm cartridge
internal tape devices, 9331-011, 9331-012, or #6135 external diskette devices, and internal
CD-ROM devices.
As a feature on a #5072, #5073, or #5044 System Unit Expansion Tower, the #2624 supports
up to three internal tape or CD-ROM devices and one external diskette unit.
The internal tapes that are supported by the #2624 are:
• 1.2G ¼-inch Cartridge Migration Kit #1379
• 2.5G ¼-inch Cartridge Migration Kit #1380
• 2.5G ¼-inch Cartridge #6380
• 7G 8mm Cartridge #6390
• CD-ROM #6325
The #2624 does not support any other internal media.
The #2624 is not supported on the 9406 Model 170 or Model 720 with no SPD card slots.
Unless the customer requires a #2624 to support a diskette drive or CD-ROM, the #6513
Internal Tape Device Controller should be selected in place of #2624. For more information
on the #6513, see "#6513 Internal Tape Device Controller SPD" on page 318.
