Connect Cables to the Server Once the server is secured in the rack, you can connect the cables and power cord to its back and front panels. Important If you use the cable-management arm, your cables must be approximately 3 feet longer than the distance between the server and its peripheral devices. This extra length may not be feasible for some cables, such as SCSI cables. In this instance, you can bypass the cable-management arm with a shorter cable. But you must disconnect that cable when you open the server. Follow these steps to connect cables for network connections and peripheral devices. 1 Assemble the cables and devices you will connect to the server's back panel. Make certain that each cable has the proper connector and that it is designed for use in a high-capacity server. (Check the documentation for each peripheral device or cable to determine that it can be used with the server.) 2 Attach an identifying label to each cable you are connecting. The labels allow you to locate a specific cable quickly and avoid errors when disconnecting cables. 3 Beginning at one side of the server's back panel, connect each cable to its respective port. Do not attach the power cord yet. Power socket Gigabit Ethernet port FireWire ports (2) USB ports (2) Serial console port VGA monitor port 40 Chapter 3
