The R2200 dual-Xeon blade offers dual integrated gigabit Ethernet con-
trollers and NVIDIA-based graphics to deliver a high-performance, high-
throughput solution to your enterprise computing needs.
INSTALLATION
The R2200 can be installed in any R4300 chassis, and in an R4200
chassis that is model C3130 or newer, depending on the interposer
installed on the R2200. Before installing your R2200 equipped with a
44-pin interposer in a R4200 chassis, make sure they’re compatible by
opening the chassis front bezel and checking the label on the right-hand
side of the inside of the chassis bezel for the notation C3130 Cage. If
the model number is C3130 or later, a blade with a 44-pin interposer will
fit. If not, a 30-pin interposer must be installed on the blade before the it
will fully insert into the chassis.
Since the R2200 is a double-width blade, it needs to be installed in the
correct chassis slot pairs. Install the R2200 only in slots 1&2, 3&4, 5&6,
or 7&8.
To connect C/Ports to an R2200, use only the even-numbered C/Port
connectors 2, 4, 6, or 8, relative to those slot pairs. The odd-numbered
C/Port connections on the chassis are not connected to the R2200.
The first time you insert your R2200 into a powered-up chassis, the
green Power LED will light, and the R2200 enters a stand-by power
mode. You must depress the Power switch on the front panel of the
R2200 to bring it into a fully powered-on mode. After you do this, the
power modes function normally, and you can control the R2200’s power
remotely.
To remove an R2200, press the Power switch, and wait for the power
light to go off. Then pull the blade from chassis, taking care to support
the end of the blade as you remove it completely from the chassis.
CAUTION: Some surfaces on the blade may be hot.

Ethernet
The R2200 provides dual Ethernet ports, and these are accessible as fol-
lows:
• For a 16-port Ethernet Pass-through (EP6) module in an R4300
chassis, an R2200 in slots 1&2, 3&4, 5&6, or 7&8 uses primary
Ethernet ports 1&2, 3&4, 5&6, or 7&8, respectively. Secondary ports
on an EP6 are not connected to the R2200.
• In an R4200 chassis, the Ethernet port mapping is as follows: an
R2200 in slots 1&2, 3&4, 5&6, or 7&8 uses Ethernet ports slots 1&2,
3&4, 5&6, or 7&8, respectively.
Upgrading the Memory on an
R2200
The R2200 uses dual-channel
DDR2-400 registered ECC mem-
ory. Memory must be installed in
matched pairs in sockets, as
shown. To ensure proper opera-
tion, use only ClearCube-
approved memory.
Note: Because of a limitation in 32-bit Microsoft Windows, the operating
system reports and utilizes no more than 3 GB of memory when 4 GB of
memory is installed.
Using the USB 2.0 capability of the R2200
When used in an R4300 chassis, an R2200 with a 44-pin interposer
installed provides a USB 2.0 port at the back of the R4300. The 30-pin
interposer does not enable the USB 2.0 ports on the R4300 chassis.
As with connecting C/Ports to an R2200, use only the even-numbered
USB ports. The odd-numbered USB ports on the chassis are not con-
nected to the R2200.
Changing the Interposer on an R2200
ClearCube offers an optional kit that allows changing the standard 30-pin
interposer on an R2200 to a 44-pin interposer. With the 44-pin interposer,
the R2200 provides the convenience of a USB 2.0 port on the back of the
R4300 chassis. For more information, contact your ClearCube Reseller
or Account Executive.
The R Series Data Center Products User’s Guide contains more details
on the R2200 blade.
