Notes:

Model numbers provided are worldwide generally available variant
(GAV) model numbers which are not orderable as listed and need
to be modified by country. The U.S. GAV model numbers use the
following nomenclature: xxU. For example, the U.S. orderable part
number for 7977-12Y is 7977-12U. See the product specific Official
IBM announcement letter for other country-specific GAV model numbers.
GAV to MTM mapping for A.P. Geographies follow the same pattern.
Substitute the last character with the country-specific designator.

Withdrawal dates are provided for U.S. and Canada only.
Business Partner Inventory may be available.

LC indicates that the US models ship standard with a line cord.
