IBM 46K6735 server / storage / networking hardware Server Hardware / Parts

The IBM 46K6735 is a 4-port asynchronous EIA-232 fan-out cable, built for feature code 5785 (also shipped as FC 5277), used to break a single Power Systems adapter port out into four separate serial connections for attaching terminals, modems or other RS-232 serial devices. It is a cable assembly rather than an active adapter, carrying no electronics of its own beyond the wiring and connectors needed for the fan-out. Cables of this type were a standard accessory across IBM’s Power Systems range wherever multiple serial device connections were needed from a single async adapter port. Tech-Star ships worldwide from UK stock. Confirm your system’s async adapter is configured for feature code 5785 or 5277 compatibility before ordering, since fan-out cable pinouts are specific to the adapter generation they were designed for.
