Power cabling
The server uses two power cords that can be connected to a primary power unit
inside the rack cabinet, such as a properly grounded power distribution unit or
uninterruptible power supply, or to an external source such as a properly grounded
electrical outlet.
Attach the power supply power cords as follows:
1. Connect a power supply cord to one of the system power connectors on the
rear of the server.
2. Plug the other end of the power supply cord into a properly grounded electrical
outlet or a primary power unit inside the rack cabinet.
Note: Plugging the power-supply cords into an electrical outlet might cause the
server to start automatically. This is an acceptable action.
3. Refer to “Turning on the server” on page 10 for detailed information about
turning on the server.
SCSI cabling
The server has one SCSI port located on the back of the server. Use this port to
connect the server to an optional SCSI device such as the IBM FAStT series of
extended enclosures. For detailed information about this option and how to connect
it to the server, refer to the documentation that comes with the option.
USB cabling
The server has three USB ports, one on the front and two located on the back of
the server. Use these ports to connect the server to an optional USB device. For
detailed information about this USB option and how to connect it to the server, refer
to the documentation that comes with the option.
