Asserted
Active-high (positive true) signals are asserted when in
the high electrical state (near power potential). Activelow (negative true) signals are asserted when in the
low electrical state (near ground potential).

Deasserted
A signal is deasserted when in the inactive state.
Active-low signal names have “_L” appended to the
end of the signal mnemonic. Active-high signal names
have no “_L” suffix. To reduce confusion when referring
to active-high and active-low signals, the terms one/
zero, high/low, and true/false are not used when
describing signal states.

Safety Information
Important Safety Instructions
Read all caution and safety statements in this document before
performing any of the instructions.
Warnings
Heed safety instructions: Before working with the server,
whether using this technical guide or any other resource as a
reference, pay close attention to the safety instructions. Adhere
to the assembly instructions in this technical guide to ensure
and maintain compliance with existing product certifications and
approvals. Use only the described, regulated components
specified in this technical guide. Use of other products / components will void the UL listing and other regulatory approvals of
the product and will most likely result in non-compliance with
product regulations in the region(s) in which the product is sold.
System power on/off: The power button DOES NOT turn off
the system AC power. To remove power from system, you must
unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet. Make sure the
AC power cord is unplugged before opening the chassis, adding, or removing any components.
Hazardous conditions, devices and cables: Hazardous electrical conditions may be present on power, telephone, and communication cables. Turn off the server and disconnect the
power cord, telecommunications systems, networks, and
modems attached to the server before opening it. Otherwise,
personal injury or equipment damage can result.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) and ESD protection: ESD can
damage drives, boards, and other parts. We recommend that
you perform all procedures in this chapter only at an ESD workstation. If one is not available, provide some ESD protection by
wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis ground any
unpainted metal surface on the server when handling parts.
ESD and handling boards: Always handle boards carefully.
They can be extremely sensitive to electrostatic discharge
(ESD). Hold boards only by their edges. After removing a board
from its protective wrapper or from the server, place the board
component side up on a grounded, static free surface. Use a
conductive foam pad if available but not the board wrapper. Do
not slide board over any surface.
Installing or removing jumpers: A jumper is a small plastic
encased conductor that slips over two jumper pins. Some jumpers have a small tab on top that can be gripped with fingertips
or with a pair of fine needle nosed pliers. If the jumpers do not
have such a tab, take care when using needle nosed pliers to
remove or install a jumper; grip the narrow sides of the jumper
with the pliers, never the wide sides. Gripping the wide sides
can damage the contacts inside the jumper, causing intermittent
problems with the function controlled by that jumper. Take care
to grip with, but not squeeze, the pliers or other tool used to
remove a jumper, or the pins on the board may bend or break.

ABOUT THE SERVER INTRODUCTION
1-1
1.1. Introduction
The S210-X2A2J is a 2U high system, based on Intel®
Romley-EP platform.The platform supports high performance
8-core processors Sandy Bridge and Patsburg PCH. The Sandy
Bridge processor has an integrated DDR3 memory controller (iMC)
with four memory channels that support up to 3 ECC registered
DIMMs or unbuffered DIMMs (ECC or non-ECC) per memory
channel. The Sandy Bridge has also an integrated I/O controller
with 40 PCIe Gen3 serial lanes and ten PCIe master controllers. The target TDP power of Sandy Bridge-EP is 130W for a
server.
The Patsburg PCH has DMI/ESI x 4 Gen2 and PCIe x 4 Gen3
interfaces for communicaiton with the processor and eight
lanes of PCIe Gen2 for downstream connections to the
ASPEED AST2300 integrated BMC and Barton Hills network
controller. Romley platform supports up to forty PCIe Gen3
lanes, and ten PCIe master collectors with full peer-to-peer support between PCIe interfaces. The S210-X2A2J system supports
two DDR3 DIMM slots per memory channel.

INSTALLING HARDWARE SAFETY MEASURES
2-1
2.1. Safety Measures
WARNING!
Always ask for assistance to move or lift the system.
WARNING!
Only perform troubleshooting as authorized by the product
documentation, or as directed by a service and support team.
Repairs not authorized by warranty may void the warranty
and damage the system.
WARNING!
Always make sure to disconnect the system from the AC electrical source. Powering down the system DOES NOT ensure
there is no electrical activity in the system.
WARNING!
Server components and circuit boards are easily damaged by
discharges of static electricity. Working on servers that are
connected to a power supply can be extremely dangerous.
Follow the guidelines below to avoid personal injury or damage to the server.
WARNING!
Always disconnect the server from the power outlet whenever
you are working inside the server case.
!
!
!
!
!
WARNING!
Wear a grounded wrist strap. If none are available, discharge
any personal static electricity by touching the bare metal
chassis of the server case, or the bare metal body of any
other grounded device.
WARNING!
Humid environments tend to have less static electricity than
dry environments. A grounding strap is warranted whenever
danger of static electricity exists.
WARNING!
Do not touch the components on the unless it is necessary to
do so. Do not flex or stress circuit boards.
WARNING!
Leave all replacement components inside their static-proof
packaging until you are ready to use them.
