MFIOP
Base Multifunction IOP (PCI)
The MFIOP on the 720 is part of the planar and does not occupy a PCI card slot. The base system includes this MFIOP,
which has three low-speed slots (C08, C09, C10) and one high-speed PCI card slot C11 used for the base system disk
controller #2726, #2740, #2741 PCI RAID Disk Unit Controller, #2748 PCI RAID Disk Unit Controller, or #9728. The MFIOP
also drives one Integrated PC Server or a PCI Integrated xSeries Server. One PCI card slot supports the #9720 Base PCI
WAN/Twinaxial IOA or the #9721/#9745 Base PCI 2-Line WAN IOA. The remaining two PCI card slots support #2721,
#2722, #2723, #2724, #2745, or #2746 PCI IOAs. Only one of these can be a #2723 or #2724 LAN IOA. Also, if a #2851,
#2854 PCI Integrated PC Server or #2865 PCI Integrated Netfinity Server is installed in slots C06 and C07, the #2722 or
#2746 PCI Twinaxial Workstation IOA is not allowed in slot C08, and LAN IOAs are not allowed in slots C08 or C10.
Supported on Model 720.
Base IOP Base Controller for PCI Integrated Expansion Unit (#9329/#9330)
The Base IOP is standard with #9329 and #9330 PCI integrated expansion unit. No feature is required. The Base IOP is
identified as CCIN 2809 in the #9329. In the #9330, it is identified as CCIN 2824. The Base IOP is used for attaching LAN,
WAN, and workstation IOAs to the system and supports one slot reserved for a PCI disk controller and three low-speed
slots. It also supports one PCI Integrated PC Server or Integrated xSeries Server. The Base controller is located in slot E15.
CCIN 2809. In the high-speed slot E16, only the #2726 or #2741 PCI RAID Disk Unit Controller is supported. In slots E12,
E13 and E14, it supports any three (with a maximum of one LAN) of #2721, #2722, #2723/#9723, #2724/#9724, #2745,
or #2746. When a #2865 PCI Integrated Netfinity Server is installed in E19/E20, no LAN cards are allowed in E12, E13,
and E14.
CCIN 2824. In the high-speed slot E16, only the #2726, #2741 or #2748 PCI RAID Disk Unit Controller is supported. In
slots E12, E13 and E14, it supports any three (with a maximum of two LAN cards) of #2721, #2722, #2723/#9723,
#2724/#9724, #2745, #2746, #2750, #2751, or #2761. There is a maximum of one #2750, #2751 or #2761. There can be
any combination of WAN and twinaxial. When a #2865 PCI Integrated Netfinity Server is installed in E19/E20, no LAN
cards are allowed in E12, E13, and E14.
Maximum: One
Supported on Model 720
Base IOP Base Controller for Storage/#5065 Storage/PCI Expansion Tower
The Base IOP is identified as CCIN 2824. It is standard with #5065 Storage/PCI Expansion Tower No feature is required.
It is used for attaching LAN, WAN, and workstation IOAs with two high-speed slots and two low-speed slots.
Installs in slot C03.
The #2718, #2729, or #2748 PCI RAID Disk Unit Controller are supported in C04 only. The #2723/#9723, #2724/#9724,
#2645, #2746, #2750, #2751, #2761, or #4800 are supported in C04 or C05. The #281x or #2838/#9738 PCI 100/10 Mbps
Ethernet IOA are supported on C05 only. The #2723/#9723, #2724/#9724, #2745, #2746 #2750, #2751, or #2761 are
supported in C01 or C02.
Maximum: One
#2629 #2629 LAN/WAN/Workstation IOP (SPD)
The #2629 LAN/WAN/Workstation IOP supports up to three of the following LAN/WAN/ Workstation IOAs, with a maximum
of two LAN IOAs:
#2699 Two-Line WAN IOA
#6149 16/4 Mbps Token Ring IOA
#6180 Twinaxial Workstation IOA
#6181 ASCII Workstation Controller
The #6149 and #6181 cannot occupy all three positions of the #2629.
Prerequisite: One SPD slot required per #2629
Up to seven #2629s can be placed into each #5072 1063 Mbps System Unit Expansion Tower. The #2629 is not allowed
in slot 14 of the #5072 1063 Mbps System Unit Expansion Tower. No restrictions apply when using the #2629 with a #5073
1063 Mbps System Unit Expansion Tower.
The #2629 was withdrawn from marketing on 31 May 2001.
#2720
#9720
#2720 Base PCI WAN/Twinaxial IOA
The #2720 is a combined twinaxial/communications adapter. It can be included as base in the 720 model. It provides four
ports supporting a maximum of 28 twinaxial devices. It also provides a single communications line to support ECS. The
#9720 is mutually exclusive with the #9721/#9745 Base PCI 2-Line WAN IOA.
PCI slots required: One
Maximum: One #9720 or #2720 per system
