Intel® Server Platform SR6850HW4 TPS | System Overview |
The SCSI Backplane Board performs the tasks associated with
Monitoring the SCSI bus for enclosure services messages, and acting on them appropriately. Examples of such messages include: activate a drive fault indicator; power down a drive that has failed; and report backplane temperature.
The SCSI Backplane Board connects to the Server Board Set SE8500HW4 Mainboard, provides power, and signals to the front of the chassis. See Chapter 7 for a description of this board.
2.5.5Front Panel I/O Board
The Front Panel I/O Board mounts horizontally in the front left of the system and communicates with the SCSI Backplane Board. The board contains a video connector, three USB ports and an NMI button. See Chapter 8 for a description of this board.
2.5.6Front Panel Control Board
Two different front panel Control Boards are supported, the standard control panel and the Intel Local Control Panel (LCP). Both mount vertically into the chassis and connect to the Front Panel I/O Board via a cable. Each module houses the system operating buttons, LEDs and the Local Control Panel has an LCD. See Chapter 8 for a description of these boards.
