1-way, 4.2GHz POWER6 processor backplane, “Kaleri” family (IBM 8203-E4A Power 520). Ships worldwide.
The IBM 46K6610 is a 1-way (single-core) POWER6 processor backplane in the “Kaleri” engineering family for the 8203-E4A (Power 520), IBM’s 1-core 4.2GHz backplane option for that chassis (sibling part numbers 46K7784 and 46K6682). It gives the 520 its entry-level processor configuration, below the 2-way and 4-way boards used in more heavily configured systems of the same machine. The 8203-E4A ran AIX, IBM i and Linux as an entry POWER6 server, and 1-way backplanes of this type are sourced to repair or downgrade an existing 520 rather than for new deployment. Tech-Star ships from UK stock worldwide. Confirm your 8203-E4A is configured for a 1-way processor backplane before ordering, since POWER6 backplanes are matched to a specific core count and are not interchangeable within the 520 chassis.
