NOTE This is only applicable for eight x 2.5-inch hard drive chassis.

This figure shows back panel features of PowerEdge R630, two PCIe expansion cards. — Figure 1. Back panel features (two PCIe expansion cards)

Table 1. Back panel features (two PCIe expansion cards)Item 1 is the system identification button on the front and back panels, that can be used to locate a particular system within a rack. When one of these buttons is pressed, the LCD panel on the front and the system status indicator on the back flashes until one of the buttons is pressed again. Press to toggle the system ID on and off. If the system stops responding during POST, press and hold the system ID button for more than five seconds to enter BIOS progress mode. To reset iDRAC (if not disabled in F2 iDRAC setup), press and hold the button for more than 15 seconds. Item 2 is System identification connector, that allows you to connect the optional system status indicator assembly through the optional cable management arm. Item 3 is iDRAC8 Enterprise port. It is a dedicated management port. The port is available for use only if the iDRAC8 Enterprise license is installed on your system. Item 4 is PCIe expansion card slot (riser 1), that allows you to connect a low profile PCIe expansion card. Item 5 is serial connector, that allows you to connect a serial device to the system. Item 6 is video connector, that allows you to connect a VGA display to the system. Item 7 is USB ports (2), that allows you to connect USB devices to the system. The ports are USB 3.0-compliant. Item 8 is PCIe expansion card slot (riser 2) that allows you to connect a full height three-fourth length PCIe expansion card. Item 9 are Ethernet connectors (4) that has four integrated 10/100/1000 Mbps NIC connectors or four integrated connectors and two integrated 10/100/1000 Mbps NIC connectors, two integrated 100 Mbps/1 Gbps/10 Gbps SFP+ connectors. Item 10 and 11 are power supply units (PSU1 and (PSU2) that has AC PSU up to 495 W, 750 W, or 1100 W and DC PSU up to 750 W or 1100 W.
