򐂰 Using multiple Switch Router adapters in the same SP Switch Router, you
can provide high performance connections between system partitions in a
single SP system or between multiple SP systems.
򐂰
A single SP system can also have more than one SP Switch Router attached
to it, thus, further insuring network availability.
򐂰
Media cards are hot swappable for uninterrupted SP Switch Router
operations.
򐂰 Each SP Switch Router has redundant (N+1) hot swappable power supplies.
Two versions of the RS/6000 SP Switch Router can be used with the SP Switch:
򐂰 The Model 04S offers four media card slots.
򐂰
The Model 16S offers sixteen media card slots.
Except for the additional traffic capacity of the Model 16S, both units offer similar
performance and network availability.
