Page 19 highlights

v Video connector: Use this connector to connect a compatible SVGA or VGA video monitor to the BladeCenter unit. See "Management-module video settings" on page 17 for more information about compliant video settings. v Remote management and console (Ethernet) connector: Use this connector for an Ethernet remote connection to a network-management station on the network. See "Configuring remote access" on page 26 for more information about remote configuration. v Two USB ports for mouse and keyboard: Use these two connectors for local mouse and keyboard connectivity. Unlike a BladeCenter unit, which has USB connectors on the media tray, the blade servers share the management-module USB ports through the BladeCenter KVM interface. The KVM interface has ownership of these ports. Chapter 2. External indicators, controls, and connectors 9
