The following illustration shows the pin-number assignments for the keyboard
connector on the end of the cable.

Video connector

The following illustration shows the pin-number assignments for the 15-pin analog
video connector on the rear of the server.

Auxiliary-device (pointing device) connector

There is one auxiliary-device connector that supports a mouse or other pointing
device located on the rear of the server just under the keyboard connector.
The following illustration shows the pin-number assignments for the auxiliary-device
connector on the end of the cable.

Gigabit Ethernet port

Your server comes with two integrated Gigabit Ethernet controllers. These
controllers provide an interface for connecting to 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps, or 1000-Mbps
networks and provide full-duplex (FDX) capability, which enables simultaneous
transmission and reception of data on the Ethernet local area network (LAN).
To access the Ethernet port, connect a Category 3, 4, or 5 unshielded twisted-pair
(UTP) cable to the RJ-45 connector on the rear of your server.
Note: The 100BASE-TX/1000BASE-T Fast Ethernet standard requires that the
The Ethernet (RJ-45) connector has two LEDs. The Ethernet link LED is on the
right. When this green LED is on, there is an active connection on the Ethernet
port. The Ethernet activity LED is on the left. When this green LED is on, there is
activity between the server and the network. These LEDs have the same functions
as the Ethernet link LED and the Ethernet activity LED on the rear of the server
(see the User's Guide on the IBM xSeries Documentation CD for information about
the Configuration/Setup Utility program).

Configuring the Gigabit Ethernet controller

The Ethernet controllers are integrated on the system board. These controllers
provide an interface for connecting to 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps, or 1000-Mbps networks
cabling in the network be Category 5 or higher.
