The IBM 73Y9813 is a genuine IBM System z network-related component, designated ‘Glacier L30 OSA’. The ‘OSA’ reference ties this part to IBM’s Open Systems Adapter family, the networking cards System z mainframes use to connect the CEC to Ethernet-based networks.
System z mainframes of this generation remain in service across many established enterprise and financial-sector deployments, and a networking component of this type is required whenever the original is damaged or when restoring a mainframe’s network connectivity after a card-level fault. System z networking cards are not freely interchangeable across processor generations.
Tech-Star, UK-based and shipping worldwide, supplies IBM System z components for mainframe maintenance projects.
