The IBM 09L5182 is an RPC (Remote Power Control) card, S2PC variant, built for the IBM RS/6000 SP, IBM’s scalable parallel supercomputer platform that linked multiple RS/6000-based processor nodes through a proprietary high-performance switch. An RPC card gives the SP’s control workstation the ability to power individual nodes and frame components on and off remotely and to monitor their power status, which is essential in a multi-frame parallel system where nodes cannot always be reached physically. The S2PC designation marks a specific board variant within IBM’s RPC card family.
