Customer Letter Section INCREASED PERFORMANCE OVER PREVIOUS SIMILARLY PRICED DESKSIDE MODELS Solutions requiring increased performance and expansion capability are satisfied by the IBM POWERserver Model 550L, which is implemented with a 41.6MHz POWER processor with 32KB instruction cache and 32KB data cache. High-speed memory, high-performance disk drives, integrated SCSI, integrated Ethernet and CD-ROM, coupled with a wide variety of optional features, including communications, graphics and storage devices are available to configure a robust server system for a wide range of business solutions. INCREASED CAPACITY/PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT The RISC System/6000 POWERserver Model 550L supports the customer's business objectives by providing high-performance, price-competitive server solutions for commercial applications. COMPATIBILITY AND GROWTH The POWERserver Model 550L is designed to be compatible with the current family of RISC System/6000 systems and AIX/6000 Version 3 for RISC System/6000 operating system. The POWERservers 550L can be converted to the POWERstation/POWERserver Model 570, which can grow with the customer's needs. STANDARDS The POWERserver Model 550L and AIX/6000 Version 3 for RISC System/6000 operating system conform to many of the industry standards in the open system environment -- a key factor in enabling the customers to develop business solutions. The POWERserver 550L with AIX/6000 Version 3 for RISC System/6000 operating system can operate with other IBM and other vendor systems, helping to protect the customer's principal investment. UPGRADE CAPABILITIES The RISC System/6000 POWERserver 550L is designed to grow with the customer's needs. The standard memory of 32MB can be increased to 256MB. Since an integrated SCSI controller for fixed disk and media attachment is standard, all four Micro Channel slots are available for current and future expansion. A wide variety of optional features such as communications subsystems and storage devices are available for the customer's expansion requirements. The standard internal fixed disk capacity of 2GB can be expanded to 7.2GB. The IBM POWERserver Model 550L can support up to four IBM 9333 Model 500 High-Performance Disk Drive Subsystems (17.1GB) using one Micro Channel Slot and three IBM 9334 SCSI Model 500 Deskside Expansion Units (25.7GB) using one Micro Channel Slot each, for a total system maximum of 50GB storage using all four Micro Channel slots. A system using one slot for a device other than storage has a maximum storage of 41.56GB. PRODUCT POSITIONING The IBM POWERserver Model 550L is a high-performance, price-competitive, entry-level server solution that can also be configured as a workstation. The IBM POWERserver Model 550L offers significant performance gains over similarly priced previously announced RISC System/6000 deskside processors. However, while the Model 550L has the same internal disk and media expansion capability as other deskside models, its lower entry-level price and improved price-performance have been achieved by limiting its memory and Micro Channel slot expansion compared to other deskside models. Requirements for expansion beyond the limits of the 550L can be met through upgrades to the Model 570. PUBLICATIONS The System Library Subscription Service (SLSS) is available by order number only.

PRINTER INFORMATION: 1. The IBM RISC System/6000 system supports Code Page 850. The Code Page 850 cartridge must be installed on the IBM 5202 Printer to fully use the full characters sets of the system. For details on available cartridges, refer to the IBM 5202 Sales Manual. Other IBM printers have Code Page 850 resident. 2. For optimum system performance, high-speed serial printers should be attached to the native ports or 128-Port Async Controller. 3. The parallel printer port is provided for the convenience character printer. High-speed printers or applications requiring a large amount of data transfer per page (for example, high-density graphics) should use the serial interface for optimum system performance.
