HP ProLiant BL20p G3 Server Blade - Manual (Page 83)

Connecting Local I/O Devices
Directly Accessing a Configured Server Blade with Local
Keyboard, Video, and Mouse
CAUTION: Disconnect the local I/O cable from the port when not in use. The port
and connector do not provide a permanent connection. Rear iLO connector
performance degrades when the local I/O cable is in use, even when the iLO
connector on the cable is not in use.
NOTE: For this setup, a hub is not necessary to connect directly to the blade. If you need
additional connections, use the second setup.
1. Connect the video connector to a monitor (1).
2. Connect a USB mouse to the USB connector (2).
3. Connect a USB keyboard to the USB connector (3).
4. Connect the local I/O cable to the server blade (4).
