Chapter 3: Maintenance and Component Installation
Connecting an HFI Carrier Card
A host fabric interface (HFI) carrier card can be connected the JHFI sideband header and to
an SKX-F processor. Two HFI headers are located on the X11DDW-L motherboard. JHFI1 is
used for CPU 1, and JHFI2 is for CPU2. (For more information on the JHFI1/JHFI2 headers,
see Chapter 4.) Note: The 1029P-WTR server supports only one -F model processor, and
thus only one HFI connection.
Installation Instructions
1. Install the HFI carrier card to an appropriate PCI-E slot.
2. Locate the JHFI1 header on the motherboard. If CPU2 is used, use the JFHI2 header
on the motherboard.
3. Connect the HFI connector on the HFI sideband cable to the JHFI1 header.
4. Connect the other end of the HFI cable to the connector (marked
A
) on the HFI card as
shown below.
5. Connect the the plug (marked 5) on one end of the IFP54B cable to the connector
(marked
B
) on the HFI card as shown below.
6. Connect the other end of IFP54B cable to the SKX-F CPU as shown below.
