Input/output ports
This section provides information about the input/output (I/O) ports on your
appliance. These ports include the following:
v

Ethernet port
Your appliance comes with an integrated 10/100 Ethernet controller. This controller
provides an interface for connecting to 10-Mbps or 100-Mbps networks and
provides 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 appliance.
Notes:
1. The 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet standard requires that the cabling in the
network be Category 5 or higher.
2. If you plan to use the IBM Advanced Appliance Configuration Utility to configure
and manage your appliance, be sure to connect the built-in Ethernet connector
to the same physical network as your systems management console.
