3.2 Cabling and connectivity
There are a number of unique factors to consider when cabling the x440 server:
SMP Expansion Module connectivity
Remote Supervisor Adapter connectivity
RXE-100 connectivity
Serial connectivity
We discuss each of these in this section.
The rear panel of the x440 showing the locations of cable connectors is shown in
Figure 3-4. For port locations on the Remote Supervisor Adapter, refer to
Figure 3-7 on page 77.

3.2.1 SMP Expansion Module connectivity
As standard the x440 ships with a single SMP enclosure installed. When the
CPU slots in the first enclosure are fully populated, the second SMP Expansion
Module can be added. For detailed instructions on installing the second SMP
Expansion Module, refer to Chapter 2, "Installing Options", in the IBM ^
xSeries 440 Installation Guide , which is available from:
