5-3 Connecting Cables
Now that the processors are installed, the next step is to connect the cables to the
motherboard. These include the data (ribbon) 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 in preconfigured systems to prevent them from blocking the flow 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 reroute them as they were originally after
reconnecting them (make sure the red wires connect to the pin 1 locations). If you
are configuring the system, keep the airflow in mind when routing the cables.
The following data cables (with their motherboard connector locations noted)
should be connected.
See the motherboard layout diagram in this chapter for connector locations.
•
Control Panel cable (JF1, see next page)
•
SATA or SAS cables (I-SATA0~I-SATA5, L-SATA0~L-SATA7)
Connecting Power Cables
The X10SRH-CLN4F has a 24-pin primary power supply connector designated
"J24" for connection to the ATX power supply. Connect the appropriate connec-
tor from the power supply to J24 to supply power to the motherboard. See the
Connector Definitions section in this chapter for power connector pin definitions.
In addition, your power supply must be connected to the 8-pin Processor Power
connectors at JPWR1.
Connecting the Control Panel
JF1 contains header pins for various front control panel connectors. See Figure 5-2
for the pin locations of the various front control panel buttons and LED indicators.
Please note that even and odd numbered pins are on opposite sides of each header.
All JF1 wires have been bundled into single keyed ribbon cable to simplify their con-
nection. Connect one end of this cable to JF1 and the other end to the Control Panel
printed circuit board, located just behind the system status LEDs in the chassis.
See the Connector Definitions section in this chapter for details and pin descrip -
tions of JF1.
