IBM 41T9368 server / storage / networking hardware Server Hardware / Parts

The IBM 41T9368 belongs to an IBM frame’s bulk power subsystem and is recorded on our supplier data simply as BPF. IBM’s large frames convert and regulate power once at the base of the machine, in the bulk power enclosure, and that enclosure is built from regulator, controller, distribution and cooling modules that are all separately replaceable. The record identifies this as one of those bulk power modules but does not spell the abbreviation out, so we would rather you confirmed the exact unit with us than have us guess at it.

Machines of this class are maintained at field replaceable unit level. A frame holds a central electronics complex of processor books and memory, I/O drawers carrying the channel and network adapters, a bulk power subsystem and its own cooling. Engineers replace the failing unit rather than the machine, which is why individual assemblies from the z9, z10, z196 and zEC12 generations and their equivalent Power frames still trade actively years after those systems shipped.

Give us the system details or a picture of the part label and we will physically verify the match before despatch. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) holds IBM equipment for data centre maintenance work. Please contact our sales team for current availability and pricing.
