IBM 00E0837 server / storage / networking hardware Server Hardware / Parts

The IBM 00E0837 is a PCIe low-profile 2-port 1Gb SX fibre Ethernet adapter, feature code FC5768, a dual-LC-port Gigabit Ethernet card for Power6 and Power7 systems. The card provides two independent fibre Gigabit Ethernet ports over LC connectors, giving a Power server redundant or dual-network fibre connectivity where copper Ethernet is unsuitable or where the host chassis calls for a low-profile PCIe form factor. It is the fibre counterpart to the more common copper 2-port Gigabit Ethernet-TX adapters, and shares its feature-code family with other CCIN 5768 cards. Deployments include general-purpose LAN attachment and dedicated backup or management network segregation on Power-based servers. Genuine used and refurbished examples remain in demand as those systems stay in production well past their original support dates. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) stocks IBM networking FRUs and can confirm exact feature-code compatibility against your host system before dispatch.
