5-3 Connecting Cables
Now that the serverboard is installed, the next step is to connect the cables to the
board. 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 on page 5-9 for connector locations.)
DVD-ROM cable (I-SATA4)
•
SATA drive cables (I-SATA0, I-SATA1)
•
SGPIO cable (T-SGPIO0)
•
Control Panel cable (JF1)
•
Connecting Power Cables
The X8DTL-i has a 24-pin primary power supply connector (JPW1) for connection to
the ATX power supply. In addition, there are two 8-pin processor power connectors
(JPW2/JPW3) that also 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 ribbon 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.
