One port uses a standard D-shell serial-port connector, connector C. The other two ports, which are used for the RS-485 function, use a dual RJ-45 connector. You can attach a dedicated modem to the D-shell system-management connector on the rear of your server to communicate with the integrated Netfinity Advanced System Management Processor. The RS-485 function uses the RJ-45 system-management connectors. This function enables you to connect the Advanced System Management Processors of several rackmounted servers so that they can communicate with each other in half-duplex mode. Cabling the Server The following illustration shows input/output connectors and cable routing for the server. Note: The illustrations in this document might differ slightly from your hardware.

Ethernet port connector
The following table shows the pin-number assignments for the RJ-45 connector. These
assignments apply to both 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX devices.
Advanced System Management ports
Your server has three communication ports dedicated to the Netfinity Advanced
System Management Processor. One port uses a standard D-shell serial-port
connector, connector C. The other two ports, which are used for the RS-485 function,
use a dual RJ-45 connector.
You can attach a dedicated modem to the D-shell system-management connector on
the rear of your server to communicate with the integrated Netfinity Advanced
System Management Processor.
The RS-485 function uses the RJ-45 system-management connectors. This function
enables you to connect the Advanced System Management Processors of several rack-
mounted servers so that they can communicate with each other in half-duplex mode.
