2-4 Setting Up the System
! Before connecting a third-party peripheral device or interface cable to the
server, consult with your sales agent. Some third-party devices may not
be used with the server.
! The total length of a cable (including the connection cable within a SCSI
device) is limited by the SCSI standard. Ask your service representative
for details. (The internal SCSI cable of the server is 0.1 m long.)
! The LAN connector and the serial port 2 connector of this server have the
same shape. Be careful not to connect a cable to the wrong connector.
Tag all LAN and serial port cables.
A leased line cannot be connected directly to the serial port connectors.
