This topic describes how to make the connections between the system
and the following peripheral devices:
Connecting the monitor
A monitor is available for purchase for use with the Message Networking
system or the customer can supply a monitor. Most standard monitors will work with the Message Networking system.
Two cables connect the monitor to the system:
- Video cable connector: The video cable connector has a video
input connector at one end. The other end of the cable is permanently
attached to the monitor.
- Power cable: The power cable for the monitor connects to an
AC outlet on the UPS.
To connect the monitor cables:
- Plug the video cable connector from the monitor directly
into the video connector located on the back of the chassis. See
S3210R and S3210 back views and S3400-H
back views if you need to locate the video connection on the
back of the servers.
- Tighten the thumbscrews on the video cable connector
with your fingers or with a small flat blade screwdriver.
- Plug the female end of the power cable into the monitor.
- Plug the male end of the power cable into an AC outlet
on the UPS.
Connecting the keyboard and mouse
Connect the PS/2 cables for the mouse and keyboard to their
corresponding connectors on the back of the server.
The mouse connector is color-coded green, and the keyboard connector
is color-coded purple.
If the customer chooses, the customer can provide a standard PS2 mouse
and plug the mouse cable into the mouse receptacle.

Networking server to the LAN.
