Intel SE7501WV2 User Manual

Two serial ports are provided on the server board.  

• 

A low-profile RJ45 connector is located on the rear edge of the baseboard to supply 
Serial port B. The rear Serial port B is a fully functional serial port and will support any 
standard serial device as well as provide support for a serial concentrator. For those 
server applications that require a DB9 type serial connector, a 8-pin RJ45-to-DB9 
adapter must be used. See Section 3.3.2.2 for more details on Serial B usage. 

• 

Serial port A is provided through a 9-pin header on the server board.  

The following tables detail the pin-outs for these two ports.

One PS/2 port is provided for use by either a keyboard or a mouse. For server applications that 
require both a PS/2 compatible keyboard and mouse, a PS/2 Y-cable can be used. The following 
table details the pin-out of the PS/2 connector.
