Towers and Racks
Towers and Racks
To house components beyond the capability of the system unit, towers are added. Expansion
and migration towers are offered for new or migrated features respectively. Rack mounting
options are available for select systems and towers. Towers and rack mounted devices are
connected to each other using High Speed Loops (HSL).
Expansion Towers
Expansion Towers provide the iSeries servers with the ability to support additional I/O and
Disk Units. The entry iSeries server, the Model 270, supports a single tower while the Model
840 supports up to 23 towers. For information on the number and types of towers supported
by each iSeries server, see “iSeries and AS/400e Servers” on page 65.
#5074 PCI Expansion Tower
The #5074 is attached to Models 820, 830, and 840 for adding up to
45 disk units, up to 11 PCI IOA, and up to two removable media
units. The #5074 includes the #9691 bus adapter or the #9739
optical bus adapter to provide the HSL interface to the system. The
configurator adds the #9691 to the order. The #5074 contains two
buses.
Marketing configurators specify the #5074 over the #5075 and the
#5079 when a PCI Expansion Tower is required.
Select any two HSL cable features for the first or only tower of an
HSL loop. For additional towers on the HSL loop, select one HSL cable per tower.
A list of the supported HSL cables is shown in a table on page 271
Note: The #1462 15m HSL cable can only be used on HSL port A1 of the Model 820 to
directly connect a #5033, #5034, or #5035 Migration Tower I.
Select one of these SPCN cables per tower:
• #1463 - 2m SPCN cable
• #1464 - 6m SPCN cable
• #1465 - 15m SPCN cable
• #1466 - 30m SPCN cable
• #0369 - 100m Optical SPCN cable
• #1468 - 250m Optical SPCN cable
