  • Page 12: Server Chassis Features

    When configured as a SuperSever 5011H/5011E, the SC810 chassis in- cludes a 200W power supply. SCSI Subsystem (5011H only) The SCSI subsystem on the 5011H supports two 80-pin SCA Ultra160 SCSI hard drives. (Standard 1" drives are supported. SCA = Single Connection Attachment.) The SCSI drives are connected to an SCA backplane that provides power, bus termination and configuration settings.
  • Page 13 The SC810 is a 1U rackmount chassis. Its I/O panel provides one mother- board expansion slot, one COM port (another is internal), two USB ports (5011H only), PS/2 mouse and keyboard ports, a graphics port and two Ethernet ports. (See Figure 1-1.) Figure 1-1.

    UPER ERVER 5011H/5011E Manual Mainboard Features At the heart of the SuperServer 5010H/5010E lies the P3TSSR/P3TSSE, a single processor motherboard designed to provide maximum performance. Below are the main features of the P3TSSR/P3TSSE. Chipset Overview Intel’s 815E chipset is made up of three main components: the Graphics and Memory Controller Hub (GMCH), the I/O Controller Hub (ICH) and the Firm- ware Hub (FWH).
  • Page 15 32-bit PCI cards. Network Interface Controllers (NIC) The P3TSSR/P3TSSE supports two Network Interface controllers (NIC) based on Intel's 82559 and 82562 chips. (For the 5011H server, which is based on the P3TSSR mainboard, two 82559 Ethernet chips are included in the system.)

  • Page 34: General Safety Precautions

    General Safety Precautions Follow these rules to ensure general safety: Keep the area around the SuperServer 5011H/5011E clean and free of clutter. The SuperServer 5011H/5011E weighs approx. 26 lbs. (11.8 kg.) when fully loaded. When lifting the system, two people at either end should lift slowly with their feet spread out to distribute the weight.

  • Page 35: Esd Precautions

    ESD Precautions Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is generated by two objects with different electrical charges coming into contact with each other. An electrical discharge is created to neutralize this difference, which can damage electronic components and printed circuit boards. measures are generally sufficient to neutralize this difference before contact is made to protect your equipment from ESD: Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
