Table 4. Card
Property Description
CanBeFRUed
Boolean that indicates whether this PhysicalElement can be FRUed 
(TRUE) or not (FALSE).
CreationClassName
Indicates the name of the class or the subclass used in the creation 
of an instance. When used with the other key properties of this 
class, this property allows all instances of this class and its 
subclasses to be uniquely identified.
ElementName 
A user-friendly name for the object. This property allows each 
instance to define a user-friendly name in addition to its key 
properties, identity data, and description information.
NOTE: The Name property of ManagedSystemElement is 
also defined as a user-friendly name. But, it is often 
subclassed to be a Key. It is not reasonable that the 
same property can convey both identity and a user-
friendly name, without inconsistencies. Where Name 
exists and is not a Key (such as for instances of 
LogicalDevice), the same information can be present in 
both the Name and ElementName properties.
HostingBoard
Boolean indicating that this Card is a Motherboard or, more 
generically, a baseboard in a Chassis.
Manufacturer
The name of the organization responsible for producing the 
PhysicalElement. This organization may be the entity from whom 
the Element is purchased, but it is not necessarily true. The latter 
information is contained in the Vendor property of CIM_Product.
Model
The name by which the PhysicalElement is known.
PackageType
Enumeration defining the type of the PhysicalPackage.
Possible values are:
• 0 = Unknown — Indicates that the package type is not known.

existing enumerated value. The value is specified using the 
OtherPackageType property.
• 2 = Rack
• 3 = Chassis/Frame
