BladeCenter SFF Gigabit Ethernet module
This IBM 39M4630 switch module adds a Gigabit Ethernet connection to a BladeCenter SFF chassis. It is designed for administrators who need to expand network connectivity within that specific blade environment.
Practical limits of the Gigabit Ethernet interface
The module provides a single Gigabit Ethernet link, so total throughput is capped at one gigabit per second. Buyers who need higher bandwidth or multiple ports from a single module cannot meet that need with this part.

Questions about this item
Is the 39M4630 module the right Gigabit Ethernet switch for my BladeCenter SFF chassis?
Yes, the 39M4630 is built for BladeCenter SFF and adds Gigabit Ethernet switching inside the chassis.
What does the Gigabit Ethernet rating mean for throughput once the module is installed?
Each port can move up to one gigabit per second, so the switch handles full line-rate traffic between blades and uplinks.
