Overview of SWBPs
This section provides an overview of SWBPs and describes their mounting locations.
A SWBP is connected to a tape drive unit (TAPEU) and CD-RW/DVD-RW drive unit
(DVDU) to an I/O unit (IOU) through the media backplane. An expander that performs the
switching of serial attached SCSI (SAS) interfaces is mounted on a SWBP. Active
maintenance cannot be performed on an SWBP.
, and
show the mounting locations of SWBPs of M8000
server, M9000 server (base cabinet), and M9000 server (with the expansion cabinet),
respectively.
