RCI Port (Note)

When connecting a peripheral device (devices with an RCI connector) to the system,
the RCI port is used for interlocking with a power supply and error monitoring.

Note –

To use the RCI function, the server or I/O devices must have a RCI port.

Serial Port

The serial port uses an RJ-45 connector. The serial port is used with the XSCF Shell
to configure server settings and display the server status. A cross cable is used in the
serial port. The connection between the serial port (RS-232C port) and a PC requires
an RJ-45 / RS-232C conversion cable or a conversion connector. For details on serial
port connections, see

Chapter 3

and the Installation Guide for your server.

USB Port

The USB port (type A) is used to connect a USB device. The port is compatible with
USB 1.1. The port can be used by a system administrator or an FE to download the
hardware information. For the USB handling, see

Chapter 8

.

XSCF-LAN Port (Ethernet Port)

There are two XSCF-LAN ports. Both use an RJ-45 connector and are compatible
with 10BASE-T/100BASE-T (TX). The XSCF-LAN ports are used with the XSCF Shell
and XSCF Web to perform system administrator operations, output the system
status, perform domain operations, and display the console. With a connection
between the PC/workstation and LAN, the XSCF-LAN ports are used with the XSCF
Shell and XSCF Web by system administrators or FEs to configure the system
settings, display the system status, and perform component replacement tasks. For
details on using the LAN ports, see

Section 1.3, “Types of Connection to XSCF” on

page 1-12

and

Chapter 3

Link Speed LED

Located on each of the LAN ports, the Link Speed LED is a LAN LED that lights up
in green. The Link Speed LED is turned on when a 100-Mbps LAN connection is
established, and it is not turned on when a 10-Mbps LAN connection is established.
