Cable Connections

The cables connect to the motherboard as shown. The P2B-DS includes
onboard SCSI with 68-pin and 50-pin SCSI connectors. RAID connections
require the ASUS PCI-DA2100A RAID card.

Device Cables

Several cables are used for connecting devices in the server. The following
picture points out the name of each cable and its suggested location. Plastic
keepers protect the cables from contact with the fans and other devices.
Make sure that all cables are properly secured.
