Replacing the Power Distribution Board

The power distribution board (PDB) routes power from the power supply module(s) to the rest of the
server through an integral wiring harness.

To replace the PDB, you must first remove the following components:

Top cover

Support cross bar and all components attached to it

SAS HDD backplane board

All cables connections from the PDB at the other end (The cables are soldered onto the PDB
and the new board has a new set of cables attached.)

-- HDD backplane board power cable (from the backplane board, soldered on the PDB)

-- Baseboard SSI main power cable (from the 24-pin connector on the baseboard; bundle
soldered on the PDB)

-- CPU and DIMM power cables (one for each CPU, from the 8-pin connectors on the
baseboard; soldered on the PDB)

-- Fan control board power cable (from the 12-pin connector on the fan control board,
soldered on the PDB)

-- Auxiliary I/O power dongle (from any auxiliary PCI adapters installed and out of the PCI air
baffle, soldered on the PDB)

-- Baseboard power control signal cable (from the baseboard, soldered on the PDB)

Refer to Figure 24. Cable Routing” and Figure 7. Baseboard Components and Connectors” for the
location of the connectors where the cables are unplugged.
