Dell PowerEdge 2650

System Board Ports

The PowerEdge 2650 has both front and rear ports.

NOTE: This system provides two video connectors, one on the back panel, and one on the front-panel. If a monitor is connected to the front panel video connector, the back panel video connector is disabled.

The keyboard and mouse must be connected to the same panel as the monitor. For example, if the monitor is connected to the front panel video connector, the keyboard and mouse must also be connected to the keyboard/mouse front panel connector. This connector is a PS/2 connector and the keyboard connection is the default. To use both the keyboard and mouse from the front panel connector, you must use a splitter cable (Y-cable).
