IBM 46K6734 server / storage / networking hardware Server Hardware / Parts

The IBM 46K6734 is recorded as a four port asynchronous adapter under IBM feature code 5785. That feature is the 4 Port Async EIA-232 PCIe adapter for Power Systems, carrying CCIN 57D2: a full height PCI Express card giving four serial ports for consoles, modems, control gear and other RS-232 devices that still have to be attached to a modern server. IBM lists a low profile equivalent under feature code 5277, so slot height matters when matching one. Tell us the machine type and model and we will confirm the card against it.

IBM’s POWER servers have carried several names over the years, RS/6000, pSeries, iSeries, System p, System i and Power Systems, but they are maintained the same way. A drawer or frame holds processor and memory assemblies, a service processor that brings the machine up and watches over it, adapter cards in PCI or PCIe slots, and its own power and cooling. Each is a field replaceable unit identified by a feature code as well as a part number.

Give us the system details or a picture of the part label and we will physically verify the match before despatch. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) holds IBM equipment for data centre maintenance work. Please contact our sales team for current availability and pricing.
