Chapter 2: Server Installation Chapter 2 Server Installation 2.1 Overview This chapter provides advice and instructions for mounting your system in a server rack. If your system is not already fully integrated with processors, system memory, etc., refer to Chapter 3 for details on installing those components. Caution: Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components.
Chapter 2: Server Installation • In single-rack installations, stabilizers should be attached to the rack. In multi-rack installations, the racks should be coupled together. • Always verify that the rack is stable before extending a server or other component from the rack.
Chapter 2: Server Installation Mechanical Loading Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that a hazardous condition does not arise due to uneven mechanical loading. Circuit Overloading Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the power supply circuitry and the effect that any possible overloading of circuits might have on overcurrent protection and power supply wiring.

Chapter 2: Server Installation 2.3 Mounting on a Wall The chassis can be mounted on a wall using a bracket (optional, MCP-290-30201-0B). Secure the bracket to the wall where you want the server to be mounted by using four screws through the holes around the center of the bracket, as shown below. Bracket Screws Figure 2-1.
Page 19
Chapter 2: Server Installation With the input/output ports facing up, hang the server on the mounting bracket by hooking the four keyholes on the bottom of the chassis on the four knobs of the bracket. Figure 2-3. Hanging Server on the Bracket Secure the chassis to the bracket by sliding the latch back down and flipping the tab to lock it in place.

Chapter 4 Motherboard Connections Chapter 4 Motherboard Connections This section describes the connections on the A3SPI-4C-LN6PF/8C-LN6PF motherboard and provides pinout definitions. Note that depending on how the system is configured, not all connections are required. The LEDs on the motherboard are also described here. A motherboard layout indicating component locations may be found in Chapter 1.
Chapter 4 Motherboard Connections 4.2 Headers and Connectors Fan Headers This motherboard has four 4-pin fan headers. Pins 1-3 of the fan headers are backward compatible with the traditional 3-pin fans, but using 4-pin fans takes advantage of the fan speed control via Pulse Width Modulation through the BMC.
Page 33
The JTPM1 header is used to connect a Trusted Platform Module (TPM), which is available from Supermicro or a third-party vendor. A TPM is a security device that supports encryption and authentication in hard drives. It enables the motherboard to deny access if the TPM associated with the hard drive is not installed in the system.
