Connecting Local I/O Devices
1. Connect one end of the RJ-45 network cable to the local I/O cable.
2. Connect the other end of the network cable to the 10/100 Ethernet RJ-45
connector on a client PC (2).

IMPORTANT: Before removing the local I/O cable, completely log out of the current iLO
session. Do not remove the local I/O cable when the Unit Identification LED (UID) is blinking.
3. Connect the local I/O cable to the I/O port on the server blade.
CAUTION: Disconnect the local I/O cable when not in use. The port and connector
do not provide a permanent connection. Rear iLO connector performance degrades
when the local I/O cable is in use, even when the iLO connector on the cable is not in
use.
