Cisco CSS UCS Platform Series User Guide, CPS-UCS-1RU-K9 / CPS-UCS-2RU-K9
Chapter 1 Overview
System Overview
Memory 8 BG of internal memory (DIMM
1
).
See the “DIMM Memory Configuration” section on page 1-20.
Baseboard
management
Pilot III BMC, running Cisco Integrated Management Controller (CIMC) firmware.
• The CIMC can be accessed only through the 1Gb Ethernet dedicated management port.
• See the “Cisco Integrated Management Interface (CIMC)” section on page 1-22 for more
information.
Network and
management I/O
The server provides these rear-panel connectors:
• One 1-Gb Ethernet dedicated management port
• Two 1-Gb Base-T Ethernet ports
Note The LAN Ethernet posts are referred to as “Eth 0” and “Eth1” in the Cisco Connected Safety and
Security applications, such as Cisco Video Surveillance.
• One RS-232 serial port (RJ-45 connector)
• One 15-pin VGA
2
connector
• Two USB
3
2.0 connectors
• One front-panel KVM connector that is used with the included KVM cable, which provides two USB,
one VGA, and one serial connector.
Power Up to two 650 W power supplies are supported, including 1+1 redundancy (the 450W is not supported).
Do not mix power supply types in the server.
See Power Specifications, page A-2 for more information on power supplies.
Cooling Five hot-swappable fan modules for front-to-rear cooling.
PCIe I/O Two horizontal PCIe
4
expansion slots on risers.
See the “Replacing a PCIe Card” section on page 4-13 more information.
Not Supported
Only standard-profile PCIe slots are supported. The low-profile slots are not supported
Storage Drives are installed into front-panel drive bays that provide hot-pluggable access. Only the Large Form
Factor is supported (the server can hold up to four 3.5-inch SAS or SATA hard drives).

Management
(RAID)
For a list of supported RAID
5
options, see the application-specific details. For example, see the
“Supported RAID and Hard Drive Configurations (Cisco VSM)” section on page 2-3.
1. DIMM = dual inline memory module
2. VGA = video graphics array
3. USB = universal serial bus
4. PCIe = peripheral component interconnect express
5. RAID = redundant array of independent disks
