Electromagnetic compatibility compliance: This server meets the following electromagnetic compatibility specifications: FCC (CFR 47, Part 15); VCCI; CISPR-22; 89/336/EEC; BSMI (A2/NZS 3548:1995); C-Tick; ICES/NMB-003; Korean EMI/EMC (MIC Notice 2000–94, Notice 2000–72); People's Republic of China Commodity Inspection Law

Safety compliance: This server is designed and certified to meet the following safety standards: UL 60950; CAN/CSA C22.2 No. 60950–00; EN 60950; IEC 60950 including all National Differences

Table 11. Notes
Note:
  1. See 0551, 0553, 7014, and 0555 rack configurations for typical configurations when the 0551, 0553, 7014, and 0555 rack is populated with various server models.
  2. Class 3 product as defined in ASHRAE Thermal Guidelines for Data Processing Environments. The allowable operating range is 5 - 35°C (41 - 95°F). See the Temperature and humidity design criteria topic.
  3. For a description of noise emission values, see Acoustics.
  4. All Model 520 disk bays should be filled when the unit is shipped from IBM® with either disk drives or slot fillers, but if a disk is removed, refill the disk slot with either another disk drive or a disk slot filler. Filling the disk drive slot will help ensure proper airflow for cooling and help maintain optimal EMI compliance. Ordering feature 6598 results in four additional disk slot fillers being shipped.
  5. The model 9405-520 is available as a stand-alone model only.
  6. The power supplies automatically accept any voltage with the published rated voltage range. If dual power supplies are installed and operating, the power supplies draw approximately equal current from the utility (mains) and provide approximately equal current to the load.
  7. The model 9111-2858, is only available as a stand-alone model.
  8. When a tape drive is installed, using the acoustic cover feature will reduce the noise emissions when the tape drive is in use.
  9. All measurements made in conformance with ISO 7779 and declared in conformance with ISO 9296.

Special Hardware Management Console considerations

When the 9406-520, 9111-520, 9405-520, 9111-285, 9131-52A, 9406-525, and 9407-515 servers are managed by a Hardware Management Console (HMC), the console must be provided within the same room and within 8 m (26 ft) of the server.

Note: As an alternative to the local HMC requirement, it is acceptable for you to provide a supported device (such as, a PC), with connectivity and authority to operate through a remotely attached HMC. This local device must be in the same room and within 8 m (26 ft) of your server, and provide functional capability equivalent to the HMC that it replaces and that is needed by the service representative to service the system.
