IBM 46K3994 server / storage / networking hardware Server Hardware / Parts

The IBM 46K3994 is a Distributed Converter Assembly (DCA), CCIN 2C73, for the I/O drawer of IBM’s zEnterprise 114 mainframe, converting the drawer’s incoming DC power to the regulated voltages its I/O cards require. It is a power-conversion component specific to the z114’s I/O drawer rather than the mainframe’s central processor complex, distinguishing it from the DCA-ePS units used in Power Systems servers such as the 9119-FHA. DCAs of this type are replaced when an I/O drawer reports a power-conversion fault that is not resolved elsewhere in the drawer’s power chain. Tech-Star ships worldwide from UK stock. Confirm your system is a zEnterprise 114 with the matching I/O drawer configuration before ordering, since DCA units are specific to the drawer generation and CCIN they were built for.
