Cabling the server  
Before cabling the server:  

  • Make sure you have an adequate number of properly grounded outlets for the server and any other devices.
  • Select a location for the server where it will remain dry. Rain or spilled liquids might damage your server.
  • Leave about 50 mm (2 in.) of space around the server for proper air circulation.

NOTE: For additional server stability, turn the four feet a quarter turn away from the server.

Refer to the Start Here booklet for instructions on cabling the server.
 
Important Information: 

  • For operation of the system within FCC Class A limits, Class 5 Ethernet cabling must be used.
  • If there is a label covering the power connector, remove it. Connect the power cords to the server and other devices first, then plug the cords into properly grounded electrical outlets.
  • When the power cord is first plugged in, the server powers on for a few seconds, then powers off. This is normal operation.
  • In some circumstances, the server might not power off immediately when the power switch is pressed. In this case, hold the power switch down until the power turns off.
