Internal Core I/O
•
Dual channel SCSI U320 interface, two internal 68-pin connectors, one 68-pin external connector
•
The three internal SCSI drive connectors are the 80-pin type and provide drive electrical hot-plug
capability
•
One internal IDE connector for a slim-line optical device (CD and DVD)
External Core I/O
•
One SCSI U320 68 pin connector
•
Two 10/100/1000Base-T ethernet LAN connectors for twisted-pair cable
•
Four USB 2.0 ports
•
Two general purpose or 9-pin serial ports, 16550 compatible
Power Supply Unit
•
600 W output power
•
The power supply is split in a front-end block (the actual power supply case) that converts the line voltage
into a high DC voltage. Back-end voltage regulation modules (on the system board) step down the front
end DC voltage to the required voltages
•
Redundant and hot-pluggable power supplies (front-end block only)
System Board Manageability
•
Baseboard Management Controller (BMC)
•
Temperature monitoring and fans regulation by BMC
•
BMC manageability console shared with server console and general purpose serial port
•
IPMI protocol for communication between BMC/server/iLO MP hardware
•
BMC hardware diagnostics display on the front status panel
•
Locator front/rear LEDs
•
Field replacement units monitoring by BMC
•
Serial port for local and modem console
•
Wake-on-LAN and Alert-on-LAN capabilities from the 10/100/1000 BT LAN port
Enhanced Server Manageability Using the Integrated Lights Out Management
Processor
The integrated Lights Out Management Processor (iLO MP) provides the following enhancements to server
manageability:
•
Web Graphical User Interface (GUI)
•
LAN telnet console
•
Web console
