Questions about this item
Does this 46M6138 expansion card fit my existing BladeCenter chassis?
The card is built for the CIOv slot in IBM BladeCenter chassis, so it installs directly without an extra adapter.
Can I connect the card to my 4 Gb fabric using the same cables?
Yes, the 8 Gb ports auto-negotiate down to 4 Gb and work with standard LC fibre cables you already have.
