Cisco ENCS5406/K9 Enterprise Network Compute System

Overview

• Integrated LAN ports: There are eight integrated LAN ports. These ports can provide Power over Ethernet (PoE) if you have purchased a model that supports PoE power supply.
• USB 3.0 port: You can use this port to connect a mouse, keyboard, or any other USB device. Using a USB hub, you can connect more than one USB device to this port. Because this port is backward compatible, you can also use an older version of USB devices on this port.
• VGA connector: You can use this port to connect a monitor to the device. It supports a display resolution of up to 1600 x 1200 16bpp @ 60Hz.
• Ethernet management port for CIMC: Cisco Integrated Management Controller (CIMC) is the component in the device that monitors the health of the entire system.
• Ethernet management port for CPU: Use this port to connect to the CPU in your device.
• Front panel Gigabit Ethernet ports: This is a set of two dual ports. For each RJ45 port, there is a corresponding fiber optic port. At a given time, the user can use either the RJ45 connection or the corresponding fiber optic port.
• Serial console port for CPU: This serial port provides a connection to initially configure the main system's CPU, including the NFVIS software that runs there, using a traditional serial terminal. The terminal should be configured for 9600 8-N-1.
• Serial Console port for CIMC: This serial port provides a connection to initially configure the CIMC using a traditional serial terminal. The terminal should be configured for 9600 8-N-1.
