Connecting Cables

Now that the motherboard is installed, the next step is to connect the cables

to the board. These include the data (ribbon) cables for the peripherals and

control panel and the power cables.

Connecting Data Cables

The ribbon cables used to transfer data from the peripheral devices

have been carefully routed to prevent them from blocking the flow of

cooling air that moves through the system from front to back. If you

need to disconnect any of these cables, you should take care to

keep them routed as they were originally after reconnecting them

(make sure the red wires connect to the pin 1 locations). The

following data cables (with their locations noted) should be con-

nected. (See the layout on page 5-10 for connector locations.)

IDE Device Cables (J18 and J19)

Connecting Power Cables

The 370SSR+/370SSE+ has a 20-pin primary power supply connector

designated "ATX Power" for connection to the ATX power supply.

See Section 5-8 for power connector pin definitions.
