IBM 69Y4509 Dual Port 1Gb Ethernet Daughter Card Switch Module

SKU CH-6PW1-90YM1

A dual-port 1 Gb Ethernet daughter card switch module for expanding network connectivity in compatible systems

  • Dual-port Gigabit Ethernet adds network redundancy
  • Daughter-card form factor fits compatible IBM chassis
  • Compact 1.5 × 2.5 × 3.5 inch module saves space
  • Lightweight 5.1-ounce design eases installation

Dual-Port 1Gb Ethernet Daughter Card

The IBM 69Y4509 adds two Gigabit Ethernet ports to compatible servers or blade enclosures through a daughter-card slot. It is designed for administrators who need additional wired network connectivity without occupying a full PCIe expansion slot.

Thermals and Power

The compact form factor draws minimal power and relies on the host system airflow for cooling. No active fan is present, so acoustic output is negligible in normal operation.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 69Y4509 daughter card into the server chassis and what step is commonly missed?

Slide the card into the dedicated daughter-card slot until the connector seats firmly then secure it with the retention screw; the step often missed is fastening that screw before powering on.

What maintenance or replacement will the 69Y4509 need over its service life?

The module has no moving parts or field-replaceable components so it requires no scheduled maintenance; replacement is only necessary if a port fails or the server platform is upgraded.
