Chapter 1
Overview
The AlphaServer GS80, GS160, and GS320 systems are high-performance server platforms designed for enterprise-level applications. They are distinguished by their versatility and high degree of scalability and expandability.
These powerful, switch-based systems use four Alpha microprocessors per quad building block (QBB). Two QBBs paired back-to-back and rotated 180 reference to each other form a system box. Each QBB backplane contains a switch that acts as an interconnect between the CPU modules, memory modules, I/O riser modules, and the global port module.

Overview 1-1
1.1 The Systems
The GS80 is a rack system whereas the GS160 and GS320 are box-based systems.
1.1.1 GS80 System
The GS80 system is contained in a single cabinet. It is a drawer-based system consisting of one or two drawers. Each drawer contains one QBB with up to four CPU modules and up to four memory modules. In a two-drawer system a distribution board connects the two QBBs through their global ports.
The system cabinet of the GS80 also contains the power supplies and accommodates one PCI box, a storage shelf, and the OCP (operator control panel). An expander cabinet can house additional PCI boxes and storage shelves.
1.1.2 GS160/320 System
The GS160/320 system consists of a power cabinet and one system cabinet (GS160) or two system cabinets (GS320), depending on the configuration. The power cabinet contains the power supplies, the I/O components—the PCI boxes and storage units—and the OCP. The system cabinets house the system boxes that carry interconnect modules as well as CPU and memory modules.
The system cabinet can be configured with one or two system boxes. The first system box is located in the lower cavity of the cabinet and the second system box is inserted in the upper cavity. A fully configured system consists of a power cabinet and two system cabinets—system cabinet 1 and system cabinet 2—each system cabinet containing two system boxes.
In a single system box system a distribution board interfaces the two QBBs directly through their global ports. In configurations with more than one system box a hierarchical switch replaces the distribution board and adds a
second level switch to route information between the system boxes.
Additional PCI boxes and storage shelves can be accommodated in expander cabinets that can be attached to either side of the system.

System Specifications
The basic unit of the GS80 system consists of a single cabinet that contains one or two drawers (QBBs), power supplies, a PCI box, and a storage shelf. Additional I/O and storage facilities are accommodated in an expander cabinet attached to the system unit.
In the GS160/320 line, the basic system is the GS160. It consists of a power cabinet and system cabinet 1. The power cabinet contains the power supplies, the I/O components—the PCI boxes and storage shelves—and the OCP (operator control panel). System cabinets house one or two system boxes. Each system box has two QBBs that are paired back-to-back and rotated 180 reference to each other.
The basic system can be upgraded to contain two system boxes. An upgrade to three or four system boxes requires the addition of system cabinet 2 (GS320).
