X8-2 Back Panel Connectors and Ports
The following figure shows the locations of cable connectors and ports on the back of
Oracle Server X8-2 and the cables and devices that you connect to them.

Power supply 0 input power
Power supply 1 input power
|
The server has two power supply connectors, one for each power
supply, labeled PS0 and PS1. Power supply 0 input power and Power
supply 1 input power both connect to a rack power distribution unit
(PDU).
Do not attach power cables to the power supplies until you finish
connecting the data cables to the server. The server goes into
Standby power mode, and the Oracle ILOM service processor
initializes when the AC power cables are connected to the power
source. System messages might be lost after 60 seconds if the server
is not connected to a terminal, PC, or workstation.
Note -
Oracle ILOM signals a fault on any installed power supply that
is not connected to an AC power source, since it might indicate
a loss of redundancy.

Network management port (NET MGT)
|
The service processor NET MGT port is the optional connection to
the Oracle ILOM service processor. The service processor NET MGT
port uses an RJ-45 cable for a 10/100/1000BASE-T connection. See
NET MGT Port.
The NET MGT port is configured by default to use Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP). To set a static IP address, see
Modifying Network Settings.

Ethernet ports:
-
NET 0, 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 GbE port
-
NET 1 and NET 2, 10/25GbE SFP+ ports
-
NET 1 and NET 2, 10GBASE-T RJ-45 GbE ports
|
Three out of five Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) ports enable you to
connect the system to the network. See Ethernet Ports.
Up to 10GbE is supported when using copper Gigabit Interface
Converters (GBICS); up to 25GbE is supported when using optical
GBICs.
Note -
The 10/25GbE SFP+ ports are the default network ports for the
server. When using an SFP+ port, network connectivity is
disabled on the 10GBASE-T RJ-45 GbE ports.

|
USB port
|
The USB port supports hot-plugging. You can connect and disconnect
a USB cable or a peripheral device while the server is running
without affecting system operations. See USB Port.
|
5
|
Serial management port (SER MGT)
|
The service processor SER MGT port uses an RJ-45 cable and
terminal (or emulator) to provide access to the Oracle ILOM
command-line interface (CLI). Using Oracle ILOM, you can configure
it to connect to the system console. See SER MGT Ports.
Note -
This port does not support network connections.
