Description

The Model 3CT is a powerful technical workstation used for interactive graphical applications.

It is packaged for easy configuration and ordering and has been designed to grow with your needs. The standard memory of 64MB can be increased to 512MB with 256MB of CPU memory and a 256MB memory card (available as optional features).

The Model 3CT includes an integrated dual-ported SCSI-2 Fast/Wide controller (one for internal and one for external devices) and one integrated Ethernet interfaces as standard features. These features are integrated into the I/O board and do not use Micro Channel slots. In the standard configuration, three Micro Channel slots are available for additional features such as additional SCSI adapters, expanded graphics capability and communications. In addition, two 5.25-inch half-high media bays are standard and available for expansion.

L2 Cache:

The optional 2MB L2 cache, in addition to the already resident L1 cache, provides significant performance improvements to many applications. L2 cache, being much larger than the L1 cache, accommodates large programs and increases the probability that the next instruction or data can be found in the cache thus avoiding the access of main memory. The L2 cache, in conjunction with the L1 cache and main memory, provides a three-level hierarchy of memory that provides the best balance of cost and performance efficiency for most commercial and technical customers.

Interoperability:

The Model 3CT and the AIX operating system offer interoperability with other IBM and other vendor's systems, protecting your data processing investment. The Model 3CT is binary compatible with previously announced RS/6000 systems to help to protect your investment in software and hardware.

A system installation and management facility is provided as part of the operating system. The System Management Interface Tool (SMIT) facilitates the performance of system management tasks, such as software installation and configuration, device configuration and management, problem determination, and storage management.

Product Positioning

The RS/6000 Model 3CT is the most powerful RS/6000 desktop workstation. It is positioned above the models 3AT and 3BT and shares the same physical package. It features the POWER2 processor which is the industry's most advanced generation of super scalar design, capable of executing up to six instructions (or eight operations) in a single CPU cycle. This yields not only increases in integer performance with respect to clock frequency but also even more dramatic increases in floating point performance.

The model 3CT should be positioned for users with a high compute requirement in addition to strong graphics support. It should compete especially well in applications that require the highest possible levels of floating point performance.

The maximum memory of the model 3CT is 512MB positioning it for the high end applications that require memory structures larger than available on other RS/6000 workstations. The memory starts at 64MB indicative of this class of power user.

The model 3CT would provide incremental performance capability to existing 3AT and 3BT customers who need even more performance.

The optional Level 2 (L2) cache cards are 1MB and 2MB offering even larger L2 cache sizes than are available on other workstations. These will tend to provide enhanced performance on complex applications or environments where multiple concurrent applications cause excessive cache misses.

The model 3CT comes standard with fast and wide SCSI-2 adapters which would position it well in workstation applications that require large amounts of file access especially of very large data files.

Although POWER2 architecture is not part of the PowerPC family it should be stressed that the processor architectures are compatible and that applications compiled in common mode will execute unchanged on both architectures.

Workstation Positioning

IBM's introduction of new workstations provides customers with one of the industry's most extensive lineup of compatible product offerings. The family of workstations is as follows:

Model Conversions

Model conversions will be available to upgrade to the Model 3CT as follows:

 
From To -------- -------- 7030-3AT 7030-3CT 7030-3BT 7030-3CT  
 
From To RPQ Number -------- -------- ---------- 7012-355 7030-3CT 8A0930 7012-365 7030-3CT 8A0931 7012-375 7030-3CT 8A0932 7012-36T 7030-3CT 8A0933 7012-37T 7030-3CT 8A0934  

Model Upgrade Descriptive / Ordering Information

RPQ upgrades to a Model 3CT will be shipped using a "chassis exchange" process in conjunction with an RPQ. When ordering this model conversion, you must specify both the model conversion and RPQ number on the MES order. RPQs are not supported in "CFRS6000."

The upgrade from Model 3AT or 3BT to a Model 3CT is not an RPQ and is a processor upgrade.

The RPQ provides a model conversion for customers with installed Model 355, 365, 375, 36T or 37T systems who want the Model 3CT model capability. This field installable model conversion will help provide increased system performance and contribute to the protection of customers' initial investment in a Model 355, 365, 375, 36T or 37T system. The resultant model conversion will retain the serial number of the system before the upgrade.

Model conversion offers a high degree of flexibility in increasing the performance level of the system and helping the customers with computation-intensive applications to take advantage of the performance of the new processor while protecting their investment in disks and features.

Model Upgrade Compatibility

Models 3AT, 3BT and 3CT use a new SCSI-2 fast/wide interface. All other external interfaces are the same as on the Models 355, 365, 375,
36T,
37T.

The following SCSI cables will be required for externally attached devices after the model conversion:

 
Feature Description ------- ------------------------------------------------------------ 2439 8-bit IBM SCSI-2 Fast/Wide Adapter/A to Single Ported Device 2437 8-bit IBM SCSI-2 Fast/Wide Adapter/A to Dual Ported Device 2435 16-bit IBM SCSI-2 Fast/Wide Adapter/A to Dual Ported Device  

All Micro Channel cards, external and internal devices currently supported by the Model 3CT and announced later as supported by the Model 3CT, will also be supported by the newly converted 3CT.

The SCSI-2 fast/wide interface does NOT support the following devices:

Note: Features displaced remain with the customer.

A minimum of 64MB of memory in pairs is required before the upgrade. Customers who do not meet the memory minimum must order additional memory features or SIMM kits. This is not included in the price of the model conversion. Memory must be installed in equal pairs. CPU memory and memory card must be of EQUAL capacity. See Limitations section.

For upgraded machines, it may be necessary for 8MB or 16MB memory to be replaced or for SIMM kits to be installed to meet the above requirements.

A machine being upgraded must have a minimum of 1GB of SCSI-2 disks installed or on order. These can be any one or a combination of the following:

Limitations

Models 3AT, 3BT and 3CT use a new SCSI-2 integrated fast/wide interface. All other external interfaces are the same as on the Model 355, 365, 375,
36T,
or 37T.

Cables used for attaching existing SCSI devices are NOT compatible with the new SCSI-2 integrated interface. The following cables are required with the integrated SCSI-2 fast/wide interface:

 
Feature Description ------- ------------------------------------------------------------ 2439 8-bit IBM SCSI-2 Fast/Wide Adapter/A to Single Ported Device 2437 8-bit IBM SCSI-2 Fast/Wide Adapter/A to Dual Ported Device 2435 16-bit IBM SCSI-2 Fast/Wide Adapter/A to Dual Ported Device  

Memory must be installed in pairs. CPU memory and memory card must be of equal capacity.

Because the Model 3CT is a POWER2 model with a multi-chip ceramic module (MCM), the memory must be installed in pairs. This is unlike any other 300 Series Model.

Due to space limitations caused by the regulator card and a large MCM on the new processor card, there is only one memory card slot.

Provision has been made to add memory SIMMs on the PROCESSOR card. The memory MB on the processor card must equal the memory MB on the memory card. There are 8 SIMM positions on both cards.

The standard 64MB memory is composed of 32MB Processor Card SIMM Memory and a 32MB Memory card. It can be increased to 512MB by utilizing 256MB Processor Card SIMM memory and a 256MB Memory card.

A number of new feature codes have been created to handle memory granularity.

The only way to increase (upgrade) the system memory will be to remove the installed SIMMs and replace them with SIMMs of a greater capacity.

Concurrent diagnostics for AIX 3.2.5 will be shipped with 3.2.5 Enhancement 5 and will be available on 3/31/95. Customers with machines shipped between 2/17 and 3/31 MUST order the service APAR (#IX48611) for concurrent diagnostics.

Machines which use the Media Bay Disk Drive Mounting kit (for installing 3.5" disk drives in the 5.25" media bays) will support any valid 1GB, 1.1GB, 2GB, 2.2GB, or 4.5GB disk drive. This feature is automatically configured when required with an associated disk drive. It is not available as an independently ordered feature. Maximum number of disk drives supported in each media bay is one (System total of two). L2 Cache Memory (4045 and 4046) must be installed in pairs.

Hardware Requirements

IBM supported ASCII terminal or IBM supported display, display adapter and keyboard.

Software Requirements

AIX Version 3.2.5 or 4.1 for RS/6000.

AIX/6000 applications written for POWER-based RS/6000 models will run on the new POWER2-based models without recompilation, and will run significantly faster. Additional performance improvements can be achieved by recompiling with the latest versions of the IBM XL compilers to further exploit the POWER2 technology.

Applications compiled using a compiler option that exploits POWER2 technology may not function properly on systems that do not employ the new POWER2 technology. Customers with any combination of POWER**-, PowerPC 601**-and POWER2-based systems may continue to run their applications unmodified. New applications and recompilation of existing applications for use in a mixed processor environment should be compiled using the POWER or common mode options available in the XL compilers or any other compilers that support those options. Refer to Programming Announcements 293-488 and 293-493, dated September 21, 1993, for more information.

Concurrent diagnostics for AIX 3.2.5 will be shipped with 3.2.5 Enhancement 5 and will be available on 3/31/95. Customers with machines shipped between 2/17 and 3/31 MUST order the service APAR (#IX48611) for concurrent diagnostics.

(#2400) M-Video Capture Adapter (NTSC)

The M-Video Capture Adapter provides the capability to capture, display and digitize high-quality video images for use in presentations and applications.

The adapter accepts video input signals through a multipin connection on the adapter. The on-board processor converts the analog signal to a digital format that can be manipulated, compressed and stored for later use.

The video adapter also contains output connectors, for attachment to a monitor, which allow the user to view captured images during the capturing process. The adapter display capability is not required to run presentations containing captured images.

The video adapter end-bracket contains a 20-pin connector. The associated cable, included with the adapter, supports input/output jacks for connection to RGB (Red-Green-Blue), NTSC (National Television Standard Code, also known as Composite Video) and Y/C (Luminance/Chrominance) devices. The Y/C capability allows the user to capture a significantly higher quality image than those available from NTSC. Y/C devices, such as Super VHS video cameras and VCRs, are now emerging in the video marketplace. The adapter accepts input from devices that meet the following standards/specifications:

(#2404) IBM Ultimedia Video I/O Adapter

(For IBM US, No Longer Available as of January 8, 1998)

The Ultimedia Video I/O adapter for the RS/6000 provides a broad based solution for video enablement on the RS/6000. The Video I/O adapter is comprised of two cards: A base Micro Channel feature card which provides video in and video out and an optional guest card which provides hardware assisted video data compression or decompression. Each card is separately orderable; however, it is required to have the base card installed as a prerequisite to the guest card. The Video I/O adapter requires only one Micro Channel slot of space with either the base card or the base and guest card installed.

The Ultimedia Video I/O adapter provides support for numerous multimedia applications requiring video. Support is provided for these application requirements: still or full motion video, NTSC, PAL or S-video standards and YUV or RGB color spaces. A variety of image sizes are supported in the video capture mode and one busmaster DMA channel is offered to enhanced system thruput. A further benefit is the savings obtained through the use of the compression and decompression algorithm provided on the guest card which provides considerable assistance with regards to transporting video data internally in the system or across the network, as only the compressed data need be sent. The compression algorithm supported in hardware is M-JPEG, a universal video compression/decompression format. The compression/ decompression hardware is fully programmable to allow the user to select the compression level desired.

The Ultimedia Video I/O adapter provides the required support for applications such as multimedia enabled training, authoring, desktop publishing, video collaboration (still or live), and video distribution.

Details of Supported Functions

Video Formats Supported

Base Card Functions

The base card supports several programmable functions directly and additionally provides the system level interface for the guest compression/decompression card. The functions provided on the base card include: Analog to digital conversion with video capture support, digital to analog conversion with video out support, selectable color space conversion for video in, monitoring of incoming video images with a supported IBM graphics adapter and/or an external video monitor, scaling the size of the incoming video image, and DMA transfer of the digital image data to and from the card.

Compression/Decompression Guest Card

The compression/decompression Guest card supports the M-JPEG algorithm in either the compression mode or decompression mode. This card supports full motion video capture or video out utilizing the enablements provided by the base video card mentioned previously. Video monitoring concurrent with M-JPEG compression is supported as on the base card.

When compression is required, the quality or compression information is provided by the user through software interface whereas the decompression file sent to the adapter contains the necessary information for software to automatically interpret for the user the necessary command and control information.

Video out images may be accepted as either full size NTSC or PAL or CIF size NTSC or PAL from the system. Scaling of the CIF size images to full size NTSC, PAL or S-video images for video out is featured through support on the Guest card.

The Video I/O adapter supports M-JPEG compression of various image sizes with concurrent monitoring as shown:
