Description
The IBM 2817-0410 is a specialized adapter card designed for IBM System z mainframe servers, providing dual-port Ficon Express 8S connectivity. FICON (Fibre Connection) is IBM's channel I/O architecture for connecting mainframes to storage and other peripherals, and the Express 8S designation indicates a high-performance implementation. This adapter utilizes SX (Short Wavelength) optics, typically used for shorter distances within a data center or between closely located systems. The dual-port design offers redundancy and increased bandwidth, allowing the mainframe to connect to two separate storage controllers or networks simultaneously, enhancing availability and performance for critical mainframe operations. The 2817-0410 is engineered for the demanding requirements of mainframe environments, ensuring high reliability, low latency, and robust performance for mission-critical applications. It plays a vital role in the mainframe's ability to access storage and communicate with other system components, supporting the high throughput and availability expected from IBM System z platforms.
