Product overview

The Fujitsu A3C40072719 SB9 LAN Ethernet Switch Blade is a hot-swappable networking module designed for the PRIMERGY BX600 S3 blade server chassis. This enterprise-grade switch blade features 6 external 1 Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports and 10 internal 1 Gigabit downlink ports connecting to server blades within the chassis. Supporting Layer 2/3/4 switching capabilities, the SB9 enables redundant LAN connectivity when multiple switch blades are installed. The blade operates at 1 Gbps per port, providing reliable high-speed networking for virtualized data center environments. Its compact blade form factor integrates seamlessly into the BX600 chassis, supporting up to 4 hot-plug switch blades per chassis. Ideal for organizations requiring consolidated network infrastructure with simplified management and reduced cabling complexity in blade server deployments.

Frequently asked questions

How many server blades can the SB9 switch blade connect?

The SB9 provides 10 internal 1 Gigabit downlink ports, enabling direct connections to up to 10 server blades within the BX600 S3 chassis. Each server blade connects to one downlink port, providing dedicated 1 Gbps bandwidth per server for internal chassis communication.

What external network connections does the SB9 provide?

The SB9 includes 6 external 1 Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports (RJ45) for connection to external network infrastructure. These ports support standard copper cabling and enable the blade chassis to connect to data center networks, storage systems, and external services.

Can multiple SB9 blades be installed in a single BX600 S3 chassis?

Yes, up to 4 switch blades can be installed per BX600 S3 chassis. Multiple blades enable redundant network paths, load balancing, and failover capabilities. All switch blades are hot-swappable, allowing installation or replacement without powering down the chassis.

What switching layers does the SB9 support?

The SB9 supports Layer 2/3/4 switching, enabling VLAN segmentation (Layer 2), IP routing (Layer 3), and application-level traffic management (Layer 4). This advanced switching capability supports complex network policies and quality-of-service requirements in enterprise environments.

Is the SB9 compatible with PRIMERGY BX600 S2 chassis?

The SB9 is designed for PRIMERGY BX600 S3 chassis. While similar switch blade options exist for BX600 S2, compatibility should be verified with Fujitsu documentation before installation in S2 systems.

What is the port speed for all SB9 connections?

All ports on the SB9 operate at 1 Gigabit Ethernet speed (1000 Mbps). This includes both the 10 internal downlink ports connecting to server blades and the 6 external uplink ports connecting to external networks.

Can the SB9 be replaced without shutting down the chassis?

Yes, the SB9 is hot-swappable, allowing removal and installation without powering down the BX600 S3 chassis. This enables network maintenance, upgrades, and troubleshooting with minimal service interruption.
