IBM 2B56 integrated quad-port Ethernet adapter (Part# 2B56) designed for IBM Power Systems P770 servers running POWER7 processors. This PCI Express card provides four Gigabit Ethernet ports for high-availability clustering, failover configurations, and multi-network connectivity in enterprise Power Systems environments. Compatible with P770 and other supported POWER7 systems, the 2B56 supports standard Ethernet frame sizes and integrates with IBM's advanced RAS (Reliability, Availability, Serviceability) features. Typical applications include virtualized workloads, AIX/IBM i/Linux deployments, and mission-critical database or application server configurations where redundant network paths are required. Assembly and integration into existing P770 infrastructure is straightforward.
