Server Board Connectors

CAUTION

Many of the baseboard and front panel connectors provide operating voltage (+5 V DC and +12 V DC, for example) to devices inside the server chassis, such as fans and internal peripherals. These connectors are not overcurrent protected. Do not use these connectors for powering devices external to the server chassis. A fault in the load presented by the external devices could cause damage to the server, the interconnecting cable, and the external devices themselves.

✏NOTE

A standard ATX 20 pin power connector and standard ATX 12V 4 pin 2x2 connector can be used to power the server board S875WP1-E. Plug the power cables into the pin 1 end of their respective motherboard connectors, leaving pins 21-24 unused on the main power connector and 5-8 unused on the 12V connector.
