IBM 41V1917: 4 Gbit/s FICON card for IBM mainframes.

The IBM 41V1917 is a 4 Gbit/s FICON card. FICON, Fibre Connection, is the protocol IBM mainframes use to attach storage over fibre channel infrastructure, and cards of this type sit in the machine’s I/O cage or drawer providing those links. Link speed, optical wavelength and the machine generation that supports the feature all have to line up.

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.
