Input/Output Connectors And Devices - IBM Power PS700 Installation And User Manual

Input/output connectors and devices

The input/output connectors that are available to the blade server are supplied by the BladeCenter unit.
See the documentation that comes with the BladeCenter unit for information about the input/output
connectors.
The blade server has a media-tray select button on the control panel. See "Blade server control panel
buttons and LEDs" on page 11 for information about this button and its function.
The Ethernet controllers on the blade server communicate with the network through the
Ethernet-compatible I/O modules on the BladeCenter unit. Network signals to and from the blade server
or any expansion cards are automatically routed to a same-network-interface I/O module through
circuitry in the BladeCenter unit.
