The IBM 10N8865 is a CEC pass-thru serial port card, feature code 7878, for the Power 570 (machine type 9117-570). The CEC is the central electronics complex, the enclosure holding the processors and memory, and this card brings its serial connections out to the back of the machine. Serial access still matters on this class of hardware because it is the path an engineer uses to reach a system whose network or operating system is unavailable. Confirm the machine type before ordering, as the card is specific to this enclosure design. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) supplies IBM components for ongoing maintenance projects.
