IBM 45W8714: 8Gb Fibre Channel ECM controller module for the DS8000 storage family.

The IBM 45W8714 is an 8Gb Fibre Channel ECM (Enclosure Controller Module) for the DS8000 storage family, built around an Emulex-based 4-port Fibre Channel host bus adapter with SFP+ ports. It sits in the primary controller position of the DS8000ECM assembly, handling front-end host connectivity for a 2107-D02-class DS8000 frame, and is normally deployed alongside its paired module 45W8715. DS8000 controllers of this generation remain in active service supporting established enterprise storage estates that have not yet migrated to a newer DS8000 model. Specifiers should confirm the exact microcode level and frame model before ordering, since ECM firmware is matched to specific DS8000 releases. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) stocks IBM DS8000-family components to support ongoing storage maintenance projects.
