Internal Cabling for ProLiant DL320 Server Options
Additional internal cabling is only required when you install optional
expansion boards, such as the Remote Insight Lights-Out Edition or an internal
Smart Array controller.
Smart Array Controller (Optional)
For detailed instructions on how to cable an optional Smart Array controller,
see Chapter 3, “Installing Hardware Options.”
External Cabling
The following sections describe the proper cabling procedures for peripheral
devices and external mass storage devices supported by the ProLiant DL320
server.
Connecting the Power Cord and Peripheral Devices
Rear panel cabling on the ProLiant DL320 server must always be connected
and disconnected in a specific sequence. For a detailed explanation of
connectors and the proper cabling sequence, see “Connecting the Power Cord
and Peripheral Devices” in Chapter 4, “Installing the Server.”
CAUTION: Always follow the cabling order for the ProLiant DL320 server. Using
an improper cabling sequence can result in electrical damage to peripheral
devices.
