The IBM 10N8556 is a four-port 10/100/1000 Base-TX Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express adapter, feature code 5717, built on the Intel PRO/1000 PT quad port design. Four copper ports on a single card is the usual way to give a partitioned system enough separate network connections without consuming several slots, which matters on machines where slots are the scarcer resource. IBM also lists this adapter under part number 46Y3512. Confirm the slot type and whether your chassis needs the low-profile or full-height bracket before ordering. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) supplies IBM components for ongoing maintenance projects.
