Rear Panel Controls, Ports, and Indicators
Refer to Figure 2-2 below to locate features on the NetServer’s rear panel:
• The Remote Management Port links the NetServer to a console for real-
time diagnosis of system operation.
• The Serial B Port is a standard serial port.
• The Serial A Port is a standard serial port.
• The Parallel Port is a standard parallel port.
• The Mouse Port accepts a standard PC mouse.
• The Keyboard Port accepts a standard PC keyboard.
• The Monitor Port accepts a monitor with up to 1024 x 768 x 256
resolution, with a 60-75Hz video refresh rate. The NetServer contains
1MB of video RAM.
• The NetServer comes with three 550W power supplies installed: two in
the left rear, and one in the right rear. The optional Redundancy Kit
provides a fourth power supply to install in the right rear. Since the
NetServer only requires three power supplies to run, installing a fourth
power supply prevents service interruptions from a single power supply
failure. With the Redundancy Kit installed a power supply can be
hot-swapped.
• The Power Connector accepts two standard power cables to connect the
NetServer with the site AC power source.
