Returning the Server Module to Operation
No cables are connected to the server module during normal system operation. For setup, testing, or service purposes, you can connect cables directly to the server module by first attaching a dongle cable to the UCP on the front panel of the server module.
Caution - Dongle cables are intended for setup, testing, or service purposes and should be removed when not in use. These cables have not been evaluated for electromagnetic compatibility compliance and are not to be used during normal system operation. |
You can use the dongle cable that shipped with the modular system chassis or order an optional dongle cable with the server module.
There are two types of dongle cables, with either three or four connectors. Use the three-connector dongle cable (UCP-3) instead of the four-connector version (UCP-4) whenever possible.

Both the UCP-3 and UCP-4 dongle cables provide a USB 2.0 connection (with two connectors) and an HD-15 female connector. The serial connectors differ on the two types of dongle cables:
The UCP-3 dongle cable has an RJ-45 connector.
The UCP-4 dongle cable has an RJ-45 connector, but that is not supported on this server module. Instead, use the DB-9 connector provided on the UCP-4. If you need an RJ-45 connection, attach an optional DB-9-to-RJ-45 adapter to the DB-9 connector.
