The IBM® Flex System™ Fabric SI4093 System Interconnect Module enables simplified integration of IBM Flex System into your existing networking infrastructure. The SI4093 requires no management for most data center environments, eliminating the need to configure each networking device or individual ports, thus reducing the number of management points. The device provides a low latency, loop-free interface that does not rely upon spanning tree protocols, thus removing one of the greatest deployment and management complexities of a traditional switch. The SI4093 offers administrators a simplified deployment experience while maintaining the performance of intra-chassis connectivity, yet provides the simplicity of a single aggregated connection to the upstream network.
