Overview
G16SE
The HP NonStop G16SE enclosure is a high-bandwidth 16-port Ethernet ServerNet
enclosure for the HP Integrity NonStop BladeSystem NB54000c and the HP Integrity
NonStop BladeSystem NB56000c. This product meets the stringent requirements
of the NonStop system, which offers continuous availability, scalability, and
mission-critical capabilities. The NonStop G16SE is a follow-on product to the
combination of the Input Output Adapter Modular Enclosure (IOAME) and the
Gigabit 4-port ServerNet Adapter (G4SA). It requires 8U of rack space and can be
separated into two 4U modules. For increased flexibility, these modules may be
installed in different racks. The ports on the G16SE can be paired such that a failure
of a port does not result in any outage or reconnection and does not require manual
intervention. Each Ethernet port is dual-ported to both the X and Y ServerNet fabrics.
This ensures that there is no outage due to a ServerNet fabric failure.
The G16SE complies with 1GbE and 10/100 Ethernet standards. It is designed
to address your need for increased connectivity and performance.
16-port enclosure
• The 16 ports can be paired so that a single port failure can seamlessly fail over
to the paired port without intervention.
• Each of the two 4U modules has four 1GbE ports and four 10/100 Ethernet ports.
•
Each of the two 4U modules provides Ethernet configurations with all-copper
or up to four fiber-optical interfaces. These interfaces can be changed between
copper and fiber-optic without changing components.
Features
• Increased scalability for demanding
TCP/IP environments
• No outage or reconnect required upon a
port failure
•
Flexible speed and cabling options
