Introduction
1-1 Overview
The SBA-7222G-T2 blade module is a compact self-contained server that connects into
a pre-cabled enclosure that provides power, cooling, management and networking
functions. One enclosure for the SBA-7222G-T2 blade module can hold ten blade units.
Each blade module contains two “Nodes” that each are a separate and server system,
providing up to the equivalent of 20 blade units in one 10-blade module enclosure.
In this manual, “blade system” refers to the entire system (including the enclosure and
blades units), “blade” or “blade unit” refers to a single blade module and “blade
enclosure” is the chassis that the blades, power supplies and modules are housed in.
Please refer to our web site for information on operating systems that have been
certified for use with the SuperBlade (

1-2 Product Checklist of Typical Components
Your blade module ships with its mainboard already installed in its chassis. Memory,
hard disk drives and the CPU must all be installed by the user after shipment. See
Chapter 3: "Setup and Installation" on page 3-1 for details on installation of these
components.
Aside from the blade module unit itself, the optional AOC-XEH-iN2 Mezzanine add-on
card (with 10G Pass-Through or 10G Switch) may be ordered for your blade module
along with the following add-on cards:
• AOC-IBH-XDD
• AOC-IBH-XDS
• AOC-IBH-XQS
• AOC-IBH-XQD
See the Supermicro website and the SuperBlade Network Modules User’s Manual on
your SuperBlade system’s CD-ROM for more details on these add-on cards.
