Whenever possible, repack the add-on card in the original Supermicro box, using the
original packaging materials. If these are no longer available, be sure to pack the add-on
card in an anti-static bag and inside the box. Make sure that there is enough packaging
material surrounding the add-on card so that it does not become damaged during
shipping.
This warranty only covers normal consumer use and does not cover damages incurred
in shipping or from failure due to the alteration, misuse, abuse or improper maintenance
of products.
During the warranty period, contact your distributor first for any product problems.

Safety Guidelines
To avoid personal injury and property damage, carefully follow all the safety steps listed
below when accessing your system or handling the components.
1-1 ESD Safety Guidelines
Electric Static Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. T o prevent damage
to your system, it is important to handle it very carefully. The following measures are
generally sufficient to protect your equipment from ESD.
• Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
• Touch a grounded metal object before removing a component from the antistatic
bag.
• Handle the add-on card by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral
chips, memory modules or gold contacts.
• When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.
• Put the card and peripherals back into their antistatic bags when not in use.
1-2 General Safety Guidelines
• Always disconnect power cables before installing or removing any components from
the computer.
• Disconnect the power cable before installing or removing any cables from the
system.
• Make sure that the add-on card is securely and properly installed on the
motherboard to prevent damage to the system due to power shortage.

2-1 Connecting the AOC-SIM1U/AOC-SIM1U+ and
AOC-USB2RJ45 Add-On Cards
The AOC-SIM1U/AOC-SIM1U+ add-on cardis connected to a dedicated LAN Ethernet
port located on the AOC-USB2RJ45 add-on card via an SMC proprietary cable
(CBL-0165L) for external LAN access. One end of the CBL-0165L cable is connected to
the mini USB connector (J3) located on the AOC-SIM1U/AOC-SIM1U+ card and the
other end to that of the AOC-USB2RJ45 card. There are two LEDs located on the LAN
port to indicate network links and activities.
Refer to Figure 2-1 below for the configuration the entire SKT-0240L package and
AOC-SIM1U/AOC-SIM1U+ add-on card.

Jumper JP5 is used to reset the Kira 100 Processor, NIC, and R.T. Close Pin 1 and
Pin 2 to enable this function. After a reset or AC power-on, the AOC-SIM1U/
AOC-SIM1U+ add-on card will automatically detect if a cable (CBL-0165L) is connected.
If a cable is not detected, the AOC-SIM1U/AOC-SIM1U+ will transfer the Remote
Control function to LAN1 on the motherboard. If a cable is detected, the AOC-SIM1U/
AOC-SIM1U+ uses the dedicated LAN attached to it via the mini USB connector to
manage motherboard activities via the Remote Console. See Table 2-3 for jumper
settings.
