Connecting to the network
To connect the HP BladeSystem to a network, each enclosure must be configured with network
interconnect devices to manage signals between the server blades and the external network.
Two types of interconnect modules are available for HP BladeSystem c-Class enclosures: Pass-thru modules
and switch modules. For more information about interconnect module options, see the HP website

To prevent improper cooling and thermal damage, do not operate the server
blade or the enclosure unless all hard drive and device bays are populated with either a
component or a blank.
