Hardware Installation

1. Power off the server.
2. Remove the unit from the box.
3. Connect the included KVM cable from the server to the ports labeled Host on the unit. (Check that the keyboard and
mouse connectors are connected to the proper ports and are not crossed.)
4. If you are installing a local console, connect the local monitor, mouse, and keyboard to the ports labeled Console on the
unit.
5. If you are using remote mass storage control, connect the included USB cable from the server to the USB port on the unit.
