The BMR-H8S provides dual buffered IPMB interfaces to the IPMB-0 bus on the PICMG 3.0 midplane. The I2C channels on the H8S are connected the IPMB-A and IPMB-B through the I2C buffers. The I2C buffers allow the blade server I2C to be isolated from the midplane until the blade server is fully seated and the I2C bus on the midplane is idle. The I2C provides functions such as CPU temperature, DIMM temperature, and CPU power.
