10 Sun Fire T1000 Server Installation Guide • January 2006
■ Ethernet ports. The Sun Fire T1000 server Ethernet interfaces operate at 10 Mbps,
100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps. The transfer rates for the Ethernet ports are given in
TABLE 1-1.
■ TTYA serial port. Use the Sun Fire T1000 DB-9 connector with a null modem
cable for serial devices. This port appears as ttya in Solaris OS and OpenBoot
PROM™ messages. This port is not connected to the SC serial management port.
■ AC power cables. The server goes into standby mode and the ALOM-CMT
system controller initializes as soon as the AC power cables are connected to the
power source.
Caution – System messages might be lost if the server is not connected to a
terminal, PC, or workstation. If you are not logged in, ALOM-CMT times out after
60 seconds and reverts to the system console. For more information, refer to the Sun
Fire T1000 Server Advanced Lights Out Manager (ALOM) Guide.
Safety Precautions
Caution – Deploy the antitilt bar (if installing in a cabinet) before beginning the
installation.
