Gateway 7450R Server Rackmount Installation Guide
Completing the connections
After the server is installed in the cabinet, make the system connections.
Connecting a single server
Cable management is of utmost importance for this server. The cables must
not interfere with the airflow to the vents in the chassis. Any obstruction of
airflow could cause overheating and failure.
To connect the peripherals:
1
Turn off all servers and devices in the cabinet before attaching any of
the server cables.
2
Connect all I/O device cables (keyboard, mouse, video, serial, and
parallel) to their respective ports on the back of the server.
Important
A wide variety of system connections are possible. Your
actual system connections may be different from the
following examples.
Caution
The maximum temperature for the server is 40° C (104° F).
This value refers to the air within the rack cabinet, not the
ambient air temperature within the room.
