Connecting Cables

Connecting Data Cables

The cables used to transfer data from the peripheral devices have been carefully
routed to prevent them from blocking the fl ow of cooling air that moves through
the system from front to back. If you need to disconnect any of these cables, you
should take care to keep them routed as they were originally after reconnecting
them (make sure the red wires connect to the pin 1 locations). The following data
cables (with their locations noted) should be connected. (See the layout in Section
5-7 for connector locations.)
Important! Make sure the the cables do not come into contact with the fans.

Connecting Power Cables

The C7X99-OCE has a 24-pin primary power supply connector (JPW1) for
connection to the ATX power supply. In addition, an 8-pin processor power connector
(JPW2) must also be connected to your power supply. See Section 5-8 for power
connector pin defi nitions.

Connecting the Control Panel

JF1 contains header pins for various front control panel connectors. See Figure
5-1 for the pin defi nition.
All JF1 wires have been bundled into a single ribbon cable to simplify this
connection. Make sure the red wire plugs into pin 1 as marked on the board. The
other end connects to the Control Panel PCB board, located just behind the system
status LED on the chassis. See Section 5-8 for details and pin descriptions.
