Connecting an External USB Floppy Disk Drive
Use the USB extension cable to connect an optional USB floppy disk drive to a USB
port on the system as follows:
1. Connect the USB extension cable to the cable on the floppy disk drive.
2. Connect the USB extension cable to one of the system USB ports. Item 3 in
Figure 4-1 and item 5 in Figure 4-2 show the USB ports on the system.
NOTES
1. Software generally assigns the letter A to the optional
floppy disk drive when it is first connected to a USB
port. If you subsequently connect the drive to a
different USB port or if the system fails over, software
may assign the letter B to the disk drive.
2. Do not connect the floppy disk drive to the USB hub
on the keyboard. The keyboard does not supply the
power required by the floppy disk drive.
Connecting the System to Electrical Power
This section describes how to connect both the rack-mounted and pedestal systems to
electrical power.

System Power Overview
Your system requires at least two separate and independent AC power outlets, an
A-side power source and a B-side power source. Either source must be capable of
continuing to provide power if power to the other source is lost.
The A-side power source provides power to the top CPU0I/O enclosure and a
keyboard-video-mouse (KVM) switch. If you use a UPS, the UPS is the A-side power
source.
The B-side power source provides power to the bottom CPU- I ⁄ Oenclosure.
A pair of PDUs supplies power to multiple systems and components in a cabinet. The
top PDU in the cabinet provides A-side power. The bottom PDU in the cabinet provides
