Processor Options | Number | Two to 8 |
| Architecture | 750 MHz, 900MHz, 1050MHz or 1200 MHz UltraSPARC[tm] Cu (copper based) III |
| Cache per processor | Primary (L1): 32 KB instruction, and 64 KB data cache |
| Secondary (L2): 8 MB, ECC protected |
| CPU interface | Packet-switch crossbar connecting up to 2 CPU/Memory boards, and up to 2 I/O assemblies |
| System Interconnect | Fireplane, 9.6 GB/sec (at 150 MHz) |
System Boards | Number of boards | Maximum of 2 CPU/Memory boards and 2 I/O assemblies |
| CPU/Memory board | Two CPU's with 16 GB (max) Memory or four CPU's with 32 GB (max) memory |
| PCI I/O Assembly | n/a |
| CompactPCI I/O Assembly | Six CompactPCI slots supporting 6-3U cPCI cards |
| 2 at 66/33 MHz, 3.3V (slots 0 and 1) |
| 4 at 33 MHz, 5V (slots 2 through 5) |
Main Memory | 32 GB memory (max) per 4 CPU's or 16 GB memory (max) per 2 CPU's on a CPU/Memory board |
| Maximum system memory capacity of 64 GB (2 × 32 GB) |
| 1GB DIMMs are not supported on 750MHz CPU/Memory boards. |
| Note: The UltraSPARC III processor contains an integrated memory controller which is responsible for memory management of local memory and for running diagnostics on the CPU/Memory board. Therefore, memory capacity is directly related to the number of CPU's. |
Standard Interfaces | System Controller | Responsible for the overall control of the system. Each System Controller includes one RS-232/423 (DB25) serial interface and one 10/100BASE-T ethernet/fast ethernet (RJ45) interface. Dual system controllers are standard on the Sun Fire 6800. |
Internal Mass Storage | Sun StorEdge[tm] D240 Media Tray | A 2U-high, rack-mounted unit into which two UltraWide SCSI3 disk drive, and one DVD drive and one DDS4 tape drive can be fitted. The DVD and DDS4 devices can be replaced by extra disk drives if required. |
Power Supplies | The Sun Fire 3800-6800 server family can be configured with N"4" redundant DC bulk power supplies, which are hot swappable. The DC bulk power supplies provide power for all of the Sun Fire 3800-6800 systems' internal requirements, on a load-shared 48VDC power bus. The base package comes with 2 power supplies. |
