NSW1U Network Server—Kontron IP Network Server NSW1U Features

2.5 Ethernet Front Panel (EFP) Board

The Ethernet Front Panel (EFP) board is located in front of the power supplies and extends behind the fixed SATA hard drives. The SATA drives connect into the EFP board for power and signals. The EFP board also provides the user interface for the system's front panel and for the SIO (system management) serial port.
There are three different EFP board configurations that support various functions through use of component population/depopulation options. The three variations of the EFP are as follows:
• Front panel operations with the two dual-Ethernet controllers depopulated (NSW1U-R configuration).
• Front panel operation with the two dual-Ethernet controllers populated and accessible via the front panel bezel (NSW1U-F configuration).
• Front panel operations with the two dual-Ethernet controllers populated, in addition to the added capability to bypass the on-board Ethernet controllers during a system power failure (NSW1U-B configuration).

2.5.1 Front Panel Features

The NSW1U Network Server has the following front panel features:
• Four switches to control power-on, reset, NMI, and the system ID LED
• One system ID LED that can be controlled remotely or by the system ID switch
• Two system activity LEDs that indicate power-on and NIC activity
• One hard drive activity LED that indicates fault status for drives 0 and 1
• One system status LED that indicates a system error
• Two fixed SATA hard drives
• Connectors for interfacing to the server board and fans

2.6 Additional Optional Ethernet Functionality

The NSW1U-F and NSW1U-B servers provide four GbE ports that are accessible from the front of the system when the bezel is installed with a unique EFP board SKU. Four additional GbE NIC ports can be added to the NSW1U-F and NSW1U-B servers by using a quad GbE NIC PCIe card and cable harness. The cable harness interconnects the quad GbE NIC card to the additional four GbE NIC ports on the front face of the chassis. There are no GbE NIC ports accessible from the rear of the NSW1U-F system.
The NSW1U-R and NSW1U-B servers have four GbE NIC ports mounted on the server board that are accessible from the rear of the chassis. An additional set of four rear-accessible GbE NIC ports can be added to the NSW1U-R system by using a quad GbE NIC PCIe card with rear I/O panel access ports. There are no GbE NIC ports accessible from the front of the NSW1U-R system.
The GbE NIC ports are intended to be installed with shielded cabling that is grounded at both ends of the cable.
Warning: The intra-building port(s) of the equipment or subassembly is suitable for connection to
intra-building or unexposed wiring or cabling only. The intra-building port(s) of the equipment or subassembly MUST NOT be metallically connected to interfaces that connect to the OSP or its wiring. These interfaces are designed for use as intra-building interfaces only (Type 2 or Type 4 ports as described in GR-1089-CORE, Issue 4) and require isolation from the exposed OSP cabling. The addition of Primary Protectors is not sufficient protection in order to connect these interfaces metallically to OSP wiring.

page 47.
Drives can consume up to 17 W of power each. Drives must be specified to run at a maximum ambient temperature of 45° C.
Note: The NSW1U Network Server does not support all SATA hard drives. For a list of
validated hard drive manufacturers and hard drive types, see the Tested Hardware and Operating Systems List (THOL) on the Kontron support website at
http://us.kontron.com/support/. (Search for NSW1U, click on Product Downloads, and
then Compatability Matrix.)

2.9 Riser Card Assembly

The S5000PHB server board implements a PCI super slot that contains the signals necessary for a PCI/PCI-X* or PCI Express* (PCIe*) expansion slot. One of two different low-profile riser cards is inserted into the super slot to access the appropriate signals and provide the appropriate connector for a PCI/PCI-X or PCI Express riser card. The IP Network Server NSW1U is designed to accommodate a full-length, full-height adapter card with the card’s I/O bracket accessible through an opening in the rear panel of the system. (See Figure 10 for this location.)
The PCI/PCI-X riser card supports speeds of 33 or 66 MHz PCI and 100 or 133 MHz PCI-X.
The PCI Express riser card implements a x8 link interface, and can be used with add-in cards that implement x1, x4, or x8 interfaces.
The IP Network Server NSW1U supports either a PCI-X and a PCI-Express riser card.

2.9.1 PCI/PCI-X Riser Card

The PCI/PCI-X riser card supports one 3.3 V 64-bit slot and speeds of 33 or 66 MHz for PCI and 66, 100, or 133 MHz for PCI-X. The bus speed varies from 66 MHz to 100 MHz depending on the type of PCI adapters configured in the PCI-X riser card. For detailed information about the pinouts and electrical specifications, see the Kontron IP Network Server NSW1U Technical Product Specification.

2.9.2 PCI-Express Riser Card

PCI Express (PCIe) riser card implements a x8 link interface and can be used with add-in cards with an x1, x4, or x8 interface. For detailed information about the pinouts and electrical specifications, see the Kontron IP Network Server NSW1U Technical Product Specification.

2.10 Power Supply

The power subsystem can have up to two power supply modules capable of operating in redundant mode and a power distribution board (PDB). A power supply filler panel for the empty power supply site is supplied for systems without redundancy.
The power supply is rated for 450 W output capability in full AC or DC input voltage range.

2.11 System Cooling

There are three cooling areas in the NSW1U systems: front panel board area, PCI area, and the CPU/ Memory/HDD area.

2.11.1 Front Panel Cooling Area

The left one-fourth of the EFP front panel board and the portion of the PDB in this area are cooled by 40 × 40 × 56 mm dual-rotor fans internal to the PSUs. One PSU is sufficient to cool this portion of the front panel board area and two PSUs provide cooling redundancy for this area.
PSU fans draw air in through the bezel from the front of the system and from vents in the left front side of the chassis over this portion of the front panel board and PDB, through and exhausting out the rear of the PSUs. The left wall of the PCI fan air duct and the PSU guide wall provide an air flow barrier between the front panel board cooling area and the PCI cooling area
December 2009 Product Guide, rev. 1.4
Kontron IP Network Server NSW1U

Page 24
NSW1U Network Server—Kontron IP Network Server NSW1U Features

2.11.2 PCI Cooling Area

The 40 × 40 × 28 mm single-rotor PCI fan cools the portions of the BB, PDB, and EFP that are in this area as well as any PCI adapter card installed in the riser card assembly.
The PCI fan draws in air through the front bezel exhausts it out the rear of the system. A plastic air duct directs the air flow in this area, houses the PCI fan, and provides air flow barriers between:
• The front panel board and the PCI cooling areas
• The PCI and the CPU-Memory-HDD cooling areas.
A second plastic part located behind the PCI air duct continues the air flow barrier between the PCI cooling area and the CPU/memory/HDD cooling area. The riser card provides the third and final portion of the air flow barrier between the PCI cooling area and the CPU/memory/HDD cooling area.

2.11.3 CPU/Memory/HDD Cooling Area

The NSW1U system uses three 40 × 40 × 28 mm single-rotor fans that are assembled to a sheet metal bracket.
The NSW1U system draws air in through the front bezel and exhausts out the rear of the chassis. The CPU/memory/HDD cooling area air flow path is isolated from the rest of the system by the PCI air ducts and riser card. The hard drives pre-heat the air entering the CPU/memory air duct.

Page 30
NSW1U Network Server—Server Installations and Upgrades
3. Move the jumper from the default operating position (Pins 1-2) to the Reset/Clear position (Pins 2-3) on the appropriate jumper (J1F1 for CMOS Clear or J1H2 for Password Reset).
4. Wait 5 seconds.
5. Move the jumper back to the default position (Pins 1-2).
6. Close the server.
7. Reconnect the power source and power up the server.
8. The password and/or CMOS is now cleared and can be reset by going into BIOS setup.
3.3.1.3 BMC Force Update Procedure
When performing a standard BMC firmware update procedure, the update utility places the BMC into update mode, allowing the firmware to load safely onto the flash device. If the BMC firmware update process fails because the BMC not being in the proper update state, the server board provides a BMC Force Update jumper that forces the BMC into the update state. The following procedure should be followed if the standard BMC firmware update process fails.
1. Power down the server and remove the power cable. (Standby power is present on the server board when power is turned off but still connected.)
2. Open the server.
3. Place a jumper on the J1E3 header.
4. Close the server.
5. Reconnect the power source and power up the server.
6. Perform standard BMC firmware update procedure as documented in README.TXT file that is included in the given BMC Firmware Update package.
7. After successful completion of the firmware update process, the firmware update utility may generate an error stating that the BMC is still in update mode.
8. Power down the server and remove the power cable.
9. Open the server.
10. Remove jumper from J1E3.
11. Close the server.
12. Reconnect power source and power up the server.
Note: Normal BMC functionality is disabled when the Force BMC Update jumper is populated.
The server should never be run with the BMC Force Update jumper populated and should only be used when the standard firmware update process fails. This header should remain unpopulated by default when the server is running normally.
3.3.1.4 BIOS Select Jumper
The jumper block at J1G1 selects which BIOS image the system will boot. Pin 1 on the jumper is identified with a “ ”. This jumper should only be moved if you wish to force the BIOS to boot to the secondary bank that may hold a different version of the BIOS.
The rolling BIOS feature of the server board will automatically alternate the Boot BIOS to the secondary bank in the event the BIOS image in the primary bank is corrupted and cannot boot for any reason.
3.3.1.5 Serial B Port Configuration Jumper
The rear of the IP Network Server NSW1U provides an RJ45 connector for the Serial B port, which is intended for direct connection to serial devices such as serial port concentrators using a standard Cat 5 cable. But various serial devices which use RJ45 connectors differ in the signal they require on Pin

3.3.2.1 DIMM Population Rules
DIMM population rules depend on the operating mode of the memory controller, which is determined by the number of DIMMs installed. DIMM pairs are populated in the following DIMM slot order: A1 and B1, A2 and B2, A3 and B3.
DIMMs within a given pair must be identical with respect to size, speed, and organization. However, DIMM capacities can be different between different DIMM pairs. For example, a valid mixed DIMM configuration may have 512 Mbyte DIMMs installed in DIMM slots A1 and B1, and 1 Gbyte DIMMs installed in DIMM slots A2 and B2. Single DIMM operation is supported with the DIMM populated in slot A1 only, but populating in pairs is recommended.

3.3.2.3 Sparing Mode Memory Configuration
The Memory Controller Hub (MCH) provides memory sparing capabilities. Sparing is a RAS feature that involves configuring a DIMM to be placed in reserve so it can be use to replace a DIMM that fails. The following conditions apply:
• DIMMA1 and DIMMB1 must be identical in organization, size and speed.
• DIMMA2 and DIMMB2 must be identical in organization, size and speed.
• DIMMA1 and DIMMA2 need not be identical in organization, size and speed.
• DIMMB1 and DIMMB2 need not be identical in organization, size and speed.
• Sparing should be enabled in the BIOS setup; the BIOS will configure Rank Sparing Mode.
• The larger of the pairs {DIMMA1, DIMMB1} and {DIMMA2, DIMMB2} will be selected as the spare pair unit.

3.3.3 Installing and Removing Memory DIMMs

The silkscreen on the board for the DIMMs displays DIMMA1, DIMMA2, DIMMA3, DIMMB1, DIMMB2 and DIMMB3, starting from the inside (left side) of the server board. DIMMB3 is the socket closest to the outside edge of the server board.
3.3.3.1 Installing DIMMs

3.3.5.2 Installing the Power Supply
When inserting the new power supply, make sure the green safety lock is pressed toward the left while sliding the module into the power supply cage.

3.3.6 Grounding a DC-Powered System

The DC chassis provides two #10-32 threaded studs for chassis enclosure grounding. A single 90º standard barrel, two-hole, compression terminal lug with 5/8-inch pitch suitable for #14-10 AWG conductor (such as the Thomas & Betts* terminal lug p/n 256-31426-141) must be used for proper safety grounding. The two grounding studs are shown to the left of the power supply modules in
Figure 25.
Note: A crimping tool may be needed to secure the terminal lug to the grounding cable.

3.4 Installing or Replacing the Power Cord

Note: If you will be placing your server in a rack, wait to install the power cord until after the
server is in the rack.
Plug the power cord into the power supply.

3.5 Installing the Server into a Rack

Installation instructions for the standard bracket kit and the optional rail kit are included with each kit. These instructions can also be found on the Kontron Deployment Assistant CD and at http://
us.kontron.com/support/. (Search for NSW1U, click on Product Downloads, and then click on
Ordering Guide.)

3.5.1 Equipment Rack Precautions

Caution: ANCHOR THE EQUIPMENT RACK: The equipment rack must be anchored to an
Mains power disconnect: The power cord(s) is considered the mains disconnect for the server and
must be readily accessible when installed. If the individual server power cord(s) will not be readily accessible for disconnection then you are responsible for installing an AC power disconnect for the entire rack unit. This main disconnect must be readily accessible, and it must be labeled as controlling power to the entire rack, not just to the server(s). To remove all power, the AC cord(s) must be removed.
unmovable support to prevent it from falling over when one or more servers are extended in front of it on slide assemblies. The equipment rack must be installed according to the manufacturer's instructions. You must also consider the weight of any other device installed in the rack.
Grounding the rack installation: To avoid the potential for an electrical shock hazard, for AC power you must include a third wire safety ground conductor with the rack installation. For DC power the two studs for chassis enclosure grounding must be used for proper safety grounding. See “D” in
Figure 3 for the location of the ground studs.
Kontron IP Network Server NSW1U Product Guide, rev. 1.4 December 2009 42
Page 43
Server Installations and Upgrades—NSW1U Network Server
With AC power, if the server power cord is plugged into an outlet that is part of the rack, then you must provide proper grounding for the rack itself. If the server power cord is plugged into a wall outlet, then the safety ground conductor in the power cord provides proper grounding only for the server. You must provide additional, proper grounding for the rack and other devices installed in it.
AC Overcurrent protection: The server is designed for an AC line voltage source with up to 20 amperes of overcurrent protection per cord feed. If the power system for the equipment rack is installed on a branch circuit with more than 20 amperes of protection, you must provide supplemental protection for the server. The overall current rating of a server configured with two power supplies is less than 4 amperes.
Caution: Temperature: The operating temperature of the server, when installed in an
equipment rack, must not go below 5° C (41° F) or rise above 35° C (95° F). Extreme fluctuations in temperature can cause a variety of problems in your server.
Ventilation: The equipment rack must provide sufficient airflow to the front of the server to maintain proper cooling. It must also include ventilation sufficient to exhaust a maximum of 1200 BTU per hour for a fully loaded Kontron IP Network Server NSW1U system.
It is important to note that this measurement is the maximum, and a minimum or typical system could be much less. You may want to calculate the BTU/hr measurement more accurately for your configuration. An extra 500 BTU/hr over many systems would translate into a large error calculating air conditioning capacity.

The steps below explain how to prepare to update the BIOS, including how to record the current BIOS settings and how to obtain the update utility.
Note: In the unlikely event that a BIOS error occurs during the BIOS update process, a
recovery process may need to be followed to return the system to service. See
Section 1.4, “Additional Information and Software” for additional information.
6.2.1.1 Recording the Current BIOS Settings
1. Boot the computer and press <F2> when you see the message:
Press <F2> Key if you want to run SETUP
2. Write down the current settings in the BIOS Setup program.
Note: Do not skip step 2. You will need these settings to configure your computer at the end
of the procedure.
6.2.1.2 Obtaining the Update
Download the BIOS image file to a temporary folder on your hard drive. See Section 1.4, “Additional
Information and Software” for additional information.
Note: Review the instructions and release notes that are provided in the readme file
distributed with the BIOS image file before attempting a BIOS update. The release notes contain critical information regarding jumper settings, specific fixes, or other information to complete the update.

6.2.2 Updating the BIOS

Follow the instructions in the readme file that came with the BIOS update. When the update completes, remove the bootable media from which you performed the update.
Note: Do not power down the system during the BIOS update process! The system will reset
Note: You may encounter a CMOS Checksum error or other problem after reboot. If this
automatically when the BIOS update process is completed.
happens, shut down the system and boot it again. CMOS checksum errors require that you enter Setup, check your settings, save your settings, and exit Setup.

6.3 Clearing the CMOS

If you are not able to access the BIOS setup screens, the CMOS Clear jumper will need to be used to reset the configuration RAM. The CMOS clear jumper (J1F1) is shown in Figure 10 on page 21.
1. Power down the system and disconnect the power cord.
2. Open the server. See Section 3.2.1, “Removing the Chassis Cover” on page 25 for instructions.
3. Move jumper (J1F1) from the normal operation position, CMOS Clear by BMC, at pins 1 and 2 to the CMOS Clear Force Erase position, covering pins 2 and 3.
4. Wait five seconds.
5. Move the jumper (J1F1) back to the default position (pins 1-2).
6. Close the server chassis. See Section 3.2.2, “Installing the Chassis Cover” on page 26 for instructions.
7. Reconnect the power and restart the system.
Kontron IP Network Server NSW1U Product Guide, rev. 1.4 December 2009 82
Page 83
Server Utilities—NSW1U Network Server
The CMOS is now cleared and can be reset by going into the BIOS setup.

6.4 Clearing the Password

If the user or administrator password(s) is lost or forgotten, moving the password clear jumper into the “clear” position clears both passwords. The password clear jumper must be restored to its original position before a new password(s) can be set. The password clear jumper (J1H2) is shown in
Figure 10 on page 21.
1. Power down the system and disconnect the power cord.
2. Open the server chassis. See Section 3.2.1, “Removing the Chassis Cover” on page 25 for instructions.
3. Move the jumper (J1H2) from the normal operation position, Password Clear Protect, at pins 1 and 2 to the Password Clear Erase position, covering pins 2 and 3.
4. Wait 5 seconds.
5. Return the Password Clear jumper (J1H2) to the normal operational position, covering pins 1 and
2.
6. Close the server chassis. See Section 3.2.2, “Installing the Chassis Cover” on page 26 for instructions.
7. Reconnect the power and restart the system.

6.5 BMC Force Update Procedure

When performing a standard BMC firmware update procedure, the update utility places the BMC into an update mode to allow the firmware to load safely onto the flash device. In the unlikely event that the BMC firmware update process fails because the BMC is not in the proper update state, the server board provides a BMC Force Update jumper that can force the BMC into the proper update state. Use the following procedure if the standard BMC firmware update process fails.
1. Power down and remove AC Power.
2. Open the server chassis. Open the server. See Section 3.2.1, “Removing the Chassis Cover” on
page 25 for instructions.
3. Put a jumper on the J1E3 header.
4. Close the server chassis.
5. Reconnect the power and restart the system.
6. Perform the standard BMC firmware update procedure as documented in the README.TXT file included in the BMC Firmware Update package.
7. When the update has finished, power down the system and remove the power cord.
8. Open the server chassis (remove the top cover).
9. Remove the jumper from J1E3.
10. Close the server chassis.
11. Reconnect the power and restart the system.
Note: Normal BMC functionality is disabled when the Force BMC Update jumper is populated.
The server should never be run with the BMC Force Update jumper populated and should only be used when the standard firmware update process fails. This header should remain unpopulated when the server is running normally.

A.1 Emissions Disclaimer

To ensure EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) compliance with your local regional rules and regulations, the final configuration of your end system product may require additional EMC compliance testing. For more information, please contact your local Kontron representative.
See Appendix B, “Regulatory and Certification Information” for product Safety and EMC regulatory compliance information. This is an FCC (Federal Communications Commission) Class A device.

A.2 Intended Uses

This product was evaluated as Information Technology Equipment (ITE), which may be installed in Central Offices, Telecommunication Centers, offices, schools, computer rooms, and similar commercial type locations. The suitability of this product for other product categories and environments (medical, industrial, telecommunications, residential, alarm systems, test equipment, etc.), other than an ITE application, may require further evaluation.
Warning: Anchor the equipment rack: The equipment rack must be anchored to an unmovable
support to prevent it from falling over when one or more servers are extended in front of the rack on slides. You must also consider the weight of any other device installed in the rack. A crush hazard exists should the rack tilt forward which could cause serious injury.

A.2.1 If AC Power Supplies are Installed

Mains AC power disconnect: The AC power cord(s) is considered the mains disconnect for the server and must be readily accessible when installed. If the individual server power cord(s) will not be readily accessible for disconnection then you are responsible for installing an AC power disconnect for the entire rack unit. This main disconnect must be readily accessible, and it must be labeled as controlling power to the entire rack, not just to the server(s).
Grounding the rack installation: To avoid the potential for an electrical shock hazard, you must include a third wire safety ground conductor with the rack installation. If the server power cord is plugged into an AC outlet that is part of the rack, then you must provide proper grounding for the rack itself. If the server power cord is plugged into a wall AC outlet, the safety ground conductor in the power cord provides proper grounding only for the server. You must provide additional, proper grounding for the rack and other devices installed in it.
Kontron IP Network Server NSW1U Product Guide, rev. 1.4 December 2009 94
Page 95
Safety Information—NSW1U Network Server
Overcurrent protection: The server is designed for an AC line voltage source with up to 20 Amperes of overcurrent protection per cord feed. If the power system for the equipment rack is installed on a branch circuit with more than 20 Amperes of protection, you must provide supplemental protection for the server. The overall current rating of a configured server is less than 6 amperes.
Warning: Do not attempt to modify or use an AC power cordset that is not the exact type
required. You must use a power cordset that meets the following criteria:
• Rating: In the U.S. and Canada, cords must be UL (Underwriters Laboratories, Inc.) Listed/CSA (Canadian Standards Organization) Certified type SJT, 18-3 AWG (American Wire Gauge). Outside of the U.S. and Canada, cords must be flexible harmonized (<HAR>) or VDE (Verband Deutscher Electrotechniker, German Institute of Electrical Engineers) certified cord with 3 x 0.75 mm conductors rated 250 VAC.
• Connector, wall outlet end: Cords must be terminated in grounding-type male plug designed for use in your region. The connector must have certification marks showing certification by an agency acceptable in your region and for U.S. must be Listed and rated 125% of overall current rating of the server.
• Connector, server end: The connectors that plug into the AC receptacle on the server must be an approved IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) 320, sheet C13, type female connector.
• Cord length and flexibility: Cords must be less than 4.5 meters (14.8 feet) long.

A.2.2 If DC Power Supplies are Installed

Connection with a DC (Direct Current) source should only be performed by trained service personnel. The server with DC input is to be installed in a Restricted Access Location in accordance with articles 110-26 and 110-271 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. The DC source must be electrically isolated by double or reinforced insulation from any hazardous AC source. The DC source must be capable of providing up to 7 Watts of continuous power per feed pair.
Mains DC power disconnect: You are responsible for installing a properly rated DC power disconnect for the server system. This mains disconnect must be readily accessible, and it must be labeled as controlling power to the server. The UL listed circuit breaker of a centralized DC power system may be used as a disconnect device when easily accessible and should be rated no more than 10 Amps.
Grounding the server: To avoid the potential for an electrical shock hazard, you must reliably connect an earth grounding conductor to the server. The earth grounding conductor must be a minimum 14 AWG connected to the earth ground stud(s) on the rear of the server. The safety ground conductor should be connected to the chassis stud with a Listed closed two-hole crimp terminal having 5/8 inch pitch. The nuts on the chassis earth ground studs should be installed with a 10 in/lbs torque. The safety ground conductor provides proper grounding only for the server. You must provide additional, proper grounding for the rack and other devices installed in it.
Overcurrent protection: Overcurrent protection UL listed circuit breakers must be provided as part of each host equipment rack and must be incorporated in the field wiring between the DC source and the server. The branch circuit protection shall be rated minimum 75Vdc, 10 A maximum per feed pair. If the DC power system for the equipment rack is installed with more than 10 amperes of protection, you must provide supplemental protection for the server.
