Description 

USB port 

USB 3.0 

Used to connect to a USB 
device. 

NOTICE 

Before connecting an external 
USB device, check that the USB 
device functions properly. The 
server may operate abnormally if 
an abnormal USB device is 
connected. 

PSU socket 

Used to connect to the power 
distribution unit (PDU) in the 
cabinet. You can select the 
number of power supply units 
(PSUs) as required. 

NOTE 

 

When determining the quantity 
of PSUs, ensure that the rated 
power of the PSUs is greater 
than that of the server.   

 

If only one PSU is used, 

Predicted PSU Status

 cannot 

be set to 

Active/Standby

 on 

the iBMC WebUI. 

 

5.3 Processor 

 

The server supports two or four processors. 

 

If two processors are required, install them in sockets 

CPU1

 and 

CPU2

 

The same model of processors must be used in a server. 

 

Contact your local sales representative or use the 

Compatibility Checker

 to 

determine the components to be used.
