The other three connectors connect to the monitor, keyboard, and pointing device.
You can share one monitor, keyboard, and pointing device (such as a mouse)
among up to 42 servers using C2T interconnect cables. You can connect up to 23
servers together to create an Advanced System Management (ASM) interconnect
network (ASM bus). The bus requires that at least one of the servers has an
optional Remote Supervisor Adapter installed. You can create additional ASM
buses, each consisting of up to 23 servers if at least one server in each bus has an
optional Remote Supervisor Adapter installed.
For more details about connecting the server to a C2T chain, creating an Advanced
System Management (ASM) interconnect network, and sharing a monitor, keyboard,
and pointing device between multiple servers, see the section about cabling the
server in the
