The IBM 45D1385 carries the same “LOGIC CRD 1GB ETHERNET” designation as its 45D1386 and 45D1083 siblings, placing it in IBM’s OSA-Express Gigabit Ethernet card family for System z and zEnterprise mainframes. The sibling FRU 45D1083 is an OSA-Express3 2-port 1000BASE-T Ethernet module (feature code 3369) for the zEnterprise 114/2098 I/O cage. OSA-Express adapters install in the mainframe I/O drawer and carry the strategic network connection between the central processor complex and the customer’s Ethernet infrastructure, supporting TCP/IP traffic over copper twisted-pair cabling. Genuine IBM System z spares of this type are routinely needed to restore network redundancy or replace a failed adapter in an existing OSA configuration. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) stocks IBM mainframe network hardware to support ongoing System z maintenance projects.
