Cabling Guidelines
This chapter is an overview of the cabling that resides in the chassis of a ProLiant
ML310 server. Information on how to cable SCSI and ATA devices in the server, as
well as information about all critical server cabling, is provided.
For detailed information on cable types supported by the server, refer to the HP
ProLiant ML310 Server Cabling Matrix found at
www.compaq.com/products/servers/
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the equipment, be sure that the server is powered
down, all cables are disconnected from the back of the server, and the power cord is
disconnected from the grounded (earthed) AC outlet before installing devices.
CAUTION: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. Be
sure that you are properly grounded (earthed) before beginning any installation
procedure. Refer to Appendix B, “Electrostatic Discharge,” for more information.
