USB cabling The server has three USB connectors, one on the front and two on the back of the server. Use these connectors to connect the server to an optional USB device. For detailed information about this USB option and how to connect it to the server, see the documentation that comes with the option. Video cabling The server has one video connector located on the back of the server. Use this connector to connect the server to a monitor or optional console switch. For detailed information about this option and how to connect it to the server, see the documentation that comes with the option. Important: If the server has a Remote Supervisor Adapter II-EXA installed, you must connect a monitor or console switch to the video port on the adapter. The integrated video controller on the server is disabled for models with a Remote Supervisor Adapter II-EXA installed. Mouse cabling The server has one mouse connector located on the back of the server. Use this connector to connect a mouse to the server. For detailed information about this option and how to connect it to the server, see the documentation that comes with the option. Keyboard cabling The server has one keyboard connector on the back of the server. Use this port to connect the server to a keyboard or optional console switch. You can also connect a USB keyboard to the server using one of the USB connectors. After installing a USB keyboard, you might need to use the Configuration/Setup Utility program to enable keyboardless operation and prevent the POST error message 301 from being displayed during startup. For detailed information about this option and how to connect it to the server, see the documentation that comes with the option. Gigabit Ethernet cabling The server has two Ethernet connectors on the back of the server. Use these connectors to connect the server to a LAN. Note: A third Ethernet connector is located on the Remote Supervisor Adapter. This connector is used for specific supervisory functions and should not be confused with the Gigabit Ethernet connector located next to the USB connectors. Remote Supervisor Adapter cabling The server comes with a Remote Supervisor Adapter or Remote Supervisor Adapter II-EXA. For information about cabling the Remote Supervisor Adapter connectors, see the appropriate Remote Supervisor Adapter User's Guide on the IBM xSeries Documentation CD. 144 xSeries 445 Type 8870: Hardware Maintenance Manual and Troubleshooting Guide
