SE7501WV2 Connectors

8.6.8Serial Port Connector

Two serial ports are provided on the server board.

•A low-profile RJ45 connector is located on the rear edge of the baseboard to supply Serial port B. The rear Serial port B is a fully functional serial port and will support any standard serial device as well as provide support for a serial concentrator. For those server applications that require a DB9 type serial connector, a 8-pin RJ45-to-DB9 adapter must be used. See Section 3.3.2.2 for more details on Serial B usage.

•Serial port A is provided through a 9-pin header on the server board.

The following tables detail the pin-outs for these two ports.
