Connecting the cables

Attention: To prevent damage to equipment, connect the power cords last.

If the server cables and connector panel have color-coded connections, match the color of the cable end with the color of the connector. For example, match a blue cable end with a blue panel connector, a red cable end with a red connector, and so on.

The following illustration shows the input/output (I/O) connectors on the rear of the server.
