Chapter 1. Technical description 11
As of November 2002, you can connect two x440 servers together to form one
16-way complex. The two x440 nodes are connected together using all three
SMP Expansion Ports as shown in Figure 1-6.
Figure 1-6 16-way configuration (four SMP Expansion Modules)
The rear panel of the x440, indicating the location of the SMP Expansion Ports
and RXE Expansion Ports, is shown in Figure 1-7 on page 12.
