Unpacking
The serverboard is shipped in antistatic packaging to avoid electrical static dis-
charge. When unpacking the board, make sure the person handling it is static
protected.
5-2 Connecting Cables
The cables listed below should already be connected to the serverboard. 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 for connector locations.)
•
SAS (SAS0 ~ SAS7) or SATA (I-SATA0 ~ 5) drive cables
•
Control Panel cable (JF1)
Important! Make sure the the cables do not come into contact with the fans.
Connecting Power Cables
The X9DRH-7F/X9DRH-7TF has a 24-pin primary power supply connector (J22) for
connection to the ATX power supply. In addition, there are two 8-pin 12V processor
power connectors (JPW1 and JPW2) that must be connected to your power supply.
See Section 5-9 for power connector pin defi nitions.
Connecting the Control Panel
JF1 contains header pins for various front control panel connectors. See Figure 5-1
for the pin locations of the various front control panel buttons and LED indicators.
All JF1 wires have been bundled into a single cable to simplify this connection. Make
sure the red wire plugs into pin 1 as marked on the board. The other end connects
to the Control Panel PCB board, located just behind the system status LEDs on
the chassis. See Chapter 5 for details and pin descriptions.
