since the last release.</p>

|
<p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />Support is added for the 10 Gigabit Ethernet optical fiber
|
||
|
|
input/output adapters (IOAs) 573A and 576A. These IOAs do not require an
|
||
|
|
input/output processor (IOP) to be installed in conjunction with the IOA.
|
||
|
|
Instead the IOA can be plugged into a PCI bus slot and the IOA is controlled
|
||
|
|
by the main processor. The 573A is a 10 Gigabit SR (short reach) adapter,
|
||
|
|
which uses multimode fiber (MMF) and has a duplex LC connector. The 573A can
|
||
|
|
transmit to lengths of 300 meters. The 576A is a 10 Gigabit LR (long reach)
|
||
|
|
adapter, which uses single mode fiber (SMF) and has a duplex SC connector.
|
||
|
|
The 576A can transmit to lengths of 10 kilometers. Both of these adapters
|
||
|
|
support TCP/IP, 9000-byte jumbo frames, and the IEEE 802.3ae
|
||
|
|
standard.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
