server module
A modular system component that functions as an individual system. To function
as a system, a server module is inserted into a chassis which includes power
supplies, fans, a system management module, and at least one network switch
module. The power supplies, fans, system management module, and network
switch module are shared resources of the server modules in the chassis. See
modular system.
