HP Superdome I/O Expansion Cabinet
HP Superdome 32-way and Superdome 64-way servers can include I/O
expansion cabinets in addition to the server cabinet(s) in the complex.
Each I/O expansion cabinet has a cabinet number of either 8 or 9.
A Superdome I/O expansion cabinet includes up to 3 I/O bays, with two
12-slot I/O chassis in each bay. This provides for up to 6 chassis with a
total of 72 PCI card slots in each I/O expansion cabinet.
The Superdome I/O expansion cabinet is a standard-size cabinet that,
space permitting, you can mount peripherals in as well as I/O chassis.
See the section I/O Chassis in HP Superdome IOX Cabinets on page 51
for more details.

Servers.
