2.6.1 Advanced System Management PCI Adapter
The Advanced System Management PCI Adapter (ASM PCI adapter) is currently
the most advanced service processor in the family of management adapters and
processors that IBM offers. The adapter is standard in the Netfinity 7000 M10 and
can be purchased as an option for selected servers including the Netfinity 5000
and 5500 family (except Netfinity 5500 8660-1xU and 8660-4xU). For supported
systems see Table 11 on page 42.
When you order the ASM PCI adapter as an option (part 01K7209 in the U.S.), it
contains the adapter plus additional cables and software. See 2.6.1.2, “Ordering
the adapter separately” on page 44 for details.
Figure 25. Advanced System Management PCI Adapter
The ASM PCI adapter has the following specifications (see Figure 25):
• Full-length adapter
• 32-bit PCI interface
• Integrated PowerPC 403 RISC processor
• Connector for 56-watt external AC adapter
• RS-485 interconnect bus interface
• Serial connection for modem or other serial devices
• 10/100 Ethernet interface
• Token-ring PCMCIA interface
• Four LEDs for Ethernet and operation status
The RS-485 interconnect is discussed in detail in the redbook Netfinity Server
Management, SG24-5208.
