I/O Module Port Mapping

The integrated LOMs and optional mezzanine card s are mapped to the I/O
module ports based on the following rules:
Full-Height Blades (PowerEdge M905 and M805)
Each LOM or mezzanine card has two port connections. For a full-height
blade in bay n:
• Integrated NIC LOM1, connection 1 will connect to I/O module A1,
port n. Integrated NIC LOM1, connection 2 will connect to I/O module
A2, port n.
• Integrated NIC LOM2, connection 1 will connect to I/O module A1, port
n+8. Integrated NIC LOM2, connection 2 will connect to I/O module A2,
port n+8.
• Mezzanine card 1, connection 1 will connect to I/O module C1, port n.
Mezzanine card 1, connection 2 will connect to I/O module C2, port n.
Mezzanine card 2, connection 1 will connect to I/O module B1, port n.
•
Mezzanine card 2, connection 2 will connect to I/O module B2 port n.
• Mezzanine card 3, connection 1 will connect to I/O module C1, port n+8.
Mezzanine card 3, connection 2 will connect to I/O module C2 port n+8.
• Mezzanine card 4, connection 1 will connect to I/O module B1, port n+8.
Mezzanine card 4, connection 2 will connect to I/O module B2 port n+8.
For example, in a full-height blade in slot 5, integrated NIC LOM1
connection 1 will connect to I/O module A1, port 5 and LOM1 connection 2
will connect to I/O module A2 port 5. NIC LOM2 connection 1 will connect
to I/O module A1, port 13 and LOM2 connection 2 will connect to I/O
