2 VGA connector 7 USB 3.2 Gen 1 connectors
3 Serial connector 8 USB 3.2 Gen 1 connectors
4 XCC system management port (1 GB RJ-45)
9 NMI button
5 Ethernet connector 1 (shared with XCC network port) 10 PCIe slots
1 Power supply units
Install power supply units to these bays, connect them to power cords. Make sure the power cords are
connected properly. See
“Technical specifications” on page 4 for the power supplies supported by this
system.
For more information about the LEDs, see
“Power supply LEDs” on page 33.
2 VGA connector
Connect a monitor to this connector.
3 Serial connector
Connect a 9-pin serial device to this connector. The serial port is shared with XClarity Controller. XClarity
Controller can take control of the shared serial port to redirect serial traffic, using Serial over LAN (SOL).
4 XCC system management port (1 GB RJ-45)
The server has a 1 GB RJ-45 connector dedicated to Lenovo XClarity Controller (XCC) functions. Through
the system management port, you can access the Lenovo XClarity Controller directly by connecting your
laptop to the management port using an Ethernet cable. Make sure that you modify the IP settings on the
laptop so that it is on the same network as the server default settings. A dedicated management network
provides additional security by physically separating the management network traffic from the production
network.
See the following for more information:
•
“Set the network connection for the Lenovo XClarity Controller” on page 49
• “XCC system management port and Ethernet port LEDs” on page 36
5 6 Ethernet connector 1 and 2
Used to attach an Ethernet cable for a LAN. Each Ethernet connector has two status LEDs to help you
identify the Ethernet connectivity and activity. For more information, see
“XCC system management port and
Ethernet port LEDs” on page 36
. Ethernet 1 connector can be set as XClarity Controller Network connector.
To set Ethernet 1 connector as XClarity Controller Network connector, start Setup Utility and select BMC
