Connecting Cables
Now that the serverboard is installed, the next step is to connect the cables to the
board. These include the data cables for the peripherals and control panel and the
power cables.
Connecting Data Cables
The cables used to transfer data from the peripheral devices have been carefully
routed to prevent them from blocking the fl ow of cooling air that moves through
the system from front to back. If you need to disconnect any of these cables, you
should take care to keep them routed as they were originally after reconnecting
them (make sure the red wires connect to the pin 1 locations).
The following data cables (with their locations noted) should be connected. (See
the layout on page 5-9 for connector locations.)
•
DVD-ROM cable (IDE#1)
•
Front side USB port cables (JUSB1)
•
Front side COM port cable (COM2)
6015C-M3:
•
SAS drive cables (SAS0, SAS1, SAS2, SAS3)
•
SGPIO cables (3-SGPIO0)
6015C-MT
•
SATA drive cables (SATA0, SATA1, SATA2, SATA3)
•
SGPIO cables (T-SGPIO0)
•
Control Panel cable (JF1)
Connecting Power Cables
The X7DCL-3/X7DCL-i has a 24-pin primary power supply connector (JPW1) for
connection to the ATX power supply. In addition, there is an 8-pin processor power
connector (JPW3) that also must be connected to your power supply. See Section
5-9 for power connector pin defi nitions.
