This section contains the following topics:
•Replaceable Components Inside the Main Chassis, page 1-3

Replaceable Components Inside the Main Chassis
This section shows the locations of the replaceable components that are inside the main chassis. Some
components are accessible from the rear panel and others are accessible by opening the top covers.
The top view of the system in Figure 1-3 shows the top covers open.
Note The internal drives and cooling fans in the system are hot-swappable and are accessed by opening the
top covers. When you rack and cable the system, be sure to allow enough slack in the power and other
cables so that the system can be pulled out on the slide rails far enough to allow clearance for opening
the top covers.

System Features Overview
System Features Overview
Table 1-1 lists the features of the system.
.Table 1-1 Cisco UCS C3160 System Features
Chassis Four rack-unit (4RU) chassis.
Processors Two Intel Xeon E5-2600 v2 Series processors inside the server node.
Memory Up to 16 DIMMs inside the server node.
Multi-bit error
protection
This system supports multi-bit error protection.
Storage The system has the following storage options:
•Up to 56 internally accessible 3.5-inch drives
•Up to four 3.5-inch drives in the optional drive expander module, accessible
from the rear panel
•Up to two 2.5-inch solid state drives, accessible from the rear-panel
All drives are hot-swappable1.
Disk
Management
There is one dedicated mezzanine-style socket for a RAID controller with a 1-GB
or 4-GB cache inside the server node.
For a list of supported RAID controller options, see RAID Controller
Considerations, page C-1.
RAID Backup The optional supercap power module (SCPM) mounts to the RAID controller card
that is inside the server node.
PCIe I/O This system has no PCIe expansion slots.
Network and
management I/O
The system can have one or two system I/O controllers (SIOCs). These each
provide rear-panel connectivity. The ports differ, depending on which adapter card
is installed in the SIOC:
•If the quad-port 1-Gb RJ-45 adapter card is in the SIOC:
– Four 1-Gb BASE-T Ethernet ports (RJ-45)
– One 1-Gb dedicated management Ethernet port
•If the dual-port 10-Gb SFP+ adapter card is in the SIOC:
– Two 10-Gb SFP+ ports
– One 1-Gb dedicated management Ethernet port
The server node also has one rear-panel KVM connector that can be used with a
KVM cable, which provides two USB, one VGA, and one serial connector.
Internal USB The system includes one internal USB 2.0 slot inside the server node.
Power Two or four power supplies, 1050 W each (hot-swappable and redundant as 2+2).

System Features Overview
Cooling Four internal fan modules that pull front-to-rear cooling, hot-swappable. Each fan
module contains two fans.
In addition, there is one fan in each power supply.
Baseboard
management
Cisco Integrated Management Controller (Cisco IMC) firmware.
Depending on your NIC mode settings, the Cisco IMC can be accessed through the
dedicated management port, the 1-Gb LOM ports, or the 10-Gb LOM ports.
1. Hot-swappable = No preconditioning of the component is required before removal while the system is powered on.
