Replacing the Front Panel Board

The front panel board provides the interface to the controls at the front of the server, the power interconnect for the server board,
the USB and COM2 interfaces and SD flash modules. The FP board also houses the LED/switch board that controls the front
panel LEDs and the telco alarm manager.
To replace the FP board, you must first remove the chassis cover, the support cross bar and all three components attached to it,
all five cables in the cable bundle bracket, the fan cage and bundle bracket, all five cables connected to the FP board.
For instructions, see (A), (D), (E1), and (G) in Chapter 4.
Figure 39 shows the location of all the connectors on the FP board.
Item Description
A TAM signal cable connector (J3)
B USB/RJ45 serial stacked header
C SD 0 flash module
D SD 1 flash module
CAUTION: Before replacing any of the boards on the CG2300 server, you must first take the server out of service, turn off all
peripheral devices connected to the server, turn off the server by pressing the power button, and unplug the power cord(s) from
the system and wall outlet.
When handling the FP board, observe the normal safety and ESD precautions. See Appendix A: Safety Information for more
information.
Removing the Old Front Panel Board
1. Remove any SD flash cards in the SD module slots to save for use with the new FP board.
2. Unscrew the two fasteners on the FP board (Figure 40, "A") and slide the board away from the front of the chassis and
over the two keyhole standoffs ("B") to lift it up and out of the chassis. ("C")
