6 pSeries 610 Models 6C1 and 6E1 Technical Overview and Introduction
you need to remove the server from the rack at a later time. If you are not able to find them
at a later time, you will need to order two of part number 09N7997.
A Model 6C1 is 5 U in height, so a maximum of seven Model 6C1s fit in a T00 rack, or you can
put eight Model 6C1s in a T42 rack.
Each Model 6C1 is shipped with a rack mounting template, which helps you to easily place
the cage nuts in the correct position in a rack.
1.3.4 IBM 7316-TF1 Flat Panel Display Console
For rack-mounted systems, there is the ability to install a system console to the hardware
mounted in a system rack. This monitor combines a bright 15-inch viewable image and 1024
x 768 addressability with a space-saving package design. Using thin film transistor (TFT) LCD
technology, the T54A features a 304.1 mm x 228.1 mm viewable area with flicker-free display
of the primary XGA-mode (1024 x 768) and full-screen support for other common Video
Electronics Standards Association (VESA) and industry modes. The 7316-TF1 console has
the following attributes:
3 EIA units (3 U)
IBM T54A Flat Panel Monitor
Flat panel monitor rack-mounted
Rack keyboard tray
IBM Space Saver 2 Keyboard that mounts in the Rack Keyboard Tray and is available in
sixteen language configurations (track point mouse is integral to keyboard)
1.3.5 VGA switch
The VGA switch for the IBM 7316-TF1 Flat Panel Display Console allows users to control
multiple servers from a single console. This dual-user switch allows attachment of one or two
consoles, one of which must be an IBM 7316-TF1. Either console can control any one of the
eight servers, except that both consoles cannot talk to the same server at the same time. An
easy to use graphical interface, supported in six languages (English, French, Spanish,
German, Italian, or Brazilian Portuguese), allows fast switching between systems. Using
multiple switches in a two-level cascade arrangement, as many as 64 systems can be
controlled from a single point.
The VGA switch is only 1 EIA unit (1U) high and can be mounted in the same tray as the
7316-TF1 Rack Console, thus conserving valuable rack space. It supports a maximum video
resolution of 1600 x 1280, which facilitates the use of graphics-intensive applications and
large monitors.
To help minimize cable clutter, multi-connector cables in lengths of 7, 12, and 20 feet are
available. These cables can be used to connect the graphics adapter (required in each
attached system), keyboard port and mouse port of attached servers to the switch or to
connect between switches in a tiered configuration.
Note: The 7316-TF1 requires a GXT135P Graphics Adapter (# 2848) to be connected to a
Model 6C1.
