IBM 46K7177 server / storage / networking hardware Server Hardware / Parts

The IBM 46K7177 is a 5.0GHz, 0/2-core POWER6 processor card built for feature code 7388 in IBM’s 9117-MMA Power 570 server, sharing its family with sibling part numbers 46K6621 and 46K7213 for the same feature. It is the highest clock-speed processor option IBM offered for the 570 in this generation, aimed at customers who needed maximum single-thread performance from a POWER6-based 570 rather than core density. The 570 ran AIX, IBM i and Linux production workloads and remained a mainstay mid-range server through the POWER6 era. Cards of this type are fitted when extending an existing 570’s processor complement or replacing a faulted card of the same feature code. Tech-Star is UK-based and ships worldwide. Confirm your system is configured for feature code 7388 before ordering, since POWER6 processor cards are matched to a specific feature code and are not freely interchangeable across the 570’s processor options.
