Before reading this manual
For your safety
This manual contains important information for safely and correctly using this
product.
Carefully read the manual before using this product. Pay particular attention to
the accompanying manual "Safety Notes and Regulations" and ensure these
safety notes are understood before using the product. Keep this manual and the
manual "Safety Notes and Regulations" in a safe place for easy reference while
using this product.
Radio interference
This product is a "Class A" ITE (Information Technology Equipment). In a
domestic environment this product may cause radio interference, in which case
the user may be required to take appropriate measures. VCCI-A
Aluminum electrolytic capacitors
The aluminum electrolytic capacitors used in the product's printed circuit board
assemblies and in the mouse and keyboard are limited-life components. Use of
these components beyond their operating life may result in electrolyte leakage
or depletion, potentially causing emission of foul odor or smoke.
As a guideline, in a normal office environment (25°C) operating life is not
expected to be reached within the maintenance support period (5 years).
However, operating life may be reached more quickly if, for example, the
product is used in a hot environment. The customer shall bear the cost of
replacing replaceable components which have exceeded their operating life.
Note that these are only guidelines, and do not constitute a guarantee of
trouble-free operation during the maintenance support period.
High safety use
This product has been designed and manufactured for general uses such as
general office use, personal use, domestic use and normal industrial use. It has
not been designed or manufactured for uses which demand an extremely high
level of safety and carry a direct and serious risk to life or body if such safety
cannot be ensured.

OptionsGuide BX920 S2
These uses include control of nuclear reactions in nuclear power plants,
automatic airplane flight control, air traffic control, traffic control in mass
transport systems, medical devices for life support, and missile guidance
control in weapons systems (hereafter, "high safety use"). Customers should
not use this product for high safety use unless measures are in place for
ensuring the level of safety demanded of such use. Please consult the sales
staff of Fujitsu if intending to use this product for high safety use.
Measures against momentary voltage drop
This product may be affected by a momentary voltage drop in the power supply
caused by lightning. To prevent a momentary voltage drop, use of an AC
uninterruptible power supply is recommended.
(This notice follows the guidelines of Voltage Dip Immunity of Personal
Computer issued by JEITA, the Japan Electronics and Information Technology
Industries Association.)

3 Safety instructions
IThe following safety instructions are also provided in the manual "Safety
Notes and Regulations" or " 安全上のご注意 ".
This device complies with the relevant safety regulations for data processing
equipment, including electronic office machines for use in an office
environment.
VCAUTION!
●The actions described in this manual shall be performed by technical
specialists. A technical specialist is a person who is trained to install
the server including hardware and software.
●Repairs to the device that do not relate to CSS failures shall be
performed by service personnel. Please note that unauthorized
interference with the system will void the warranty and exempt the
manufacturer from all liability.
●Any failure to observe the guidelines in this manual, and any improper
repairs could expose the user to risks (electric shock, energy
hazards, fire hazards) or damage the equipment.
●Before installing/removing internal options to/from the server, turn off
the server, all peripheral devices, and any other connected devices.
Also unplug all power cords from the power outlet. Failure to do so
can cause electric shock.
Before starting up
VCAUTION!
●During installation and before operating the device, observe the
instructions on environmental conditions for your device.
●If the device is brought in from a cold environment, condensation may
form both inside and on the outside of the device.
Wait until the device has acclimatized to room temperature and is
absolutely dry before starting it up. Material damage may be caused
to the device if this requirement is not observed.
●Transport the device only in the original packaging or in packaging
that protects it from knocks and jolts.

16 OptionsGuide BX920 S2
Safety instructions
For the Japanese market it is not required to transport the device in
its original packaging.
Installation and operation
VCAUTION!
●Observe the notes on installation and operation in the operating
manual of your system unit.
●When installing the server blade in the system unit, beware of the
energy hazard at the midplane contacts. A short circuit on these
contacts can damage the system.
●Data cables must be adequately shielded to avoid interference.
●The EN 50173 and EN 50174-1/2 standards apply for LAN cabling.
The minimum requirement is the use of a category 5 screened LAN
cable for 10/100 Mbit/s Ethernet, or a category 5e cable for Gigabit
Ethernet. The requirements of the specification ISO/IEC 11801 must
also be taken into account.
●Route the cables in such a way that they do not form a potential
hazard (tripping) and cannot be damaged. When connecting the
device, refer to the relevant notes in the operating manual for the
device.
●Do not connect or disconnect any data transmission cables during a
thunderstorm (lightning hazard).
●Make sure that no objects (e.g. jewelry, paperclips etc.) or liquids get
inside the unit (electric shock hazard, short circuit).
●In emergencies (e.g. damaged casing, control elements or power
cables, penetration of liquids or foreign bodies), switch off the device
immediately, unplug it from the grounded power outlets, and contact
your customer service team.
●Proper operation of the system (in accordance with IEC 60950/DIN
EN 60950) is only ensured if the casing is completely assembled and
the rear covers for the installation openings have been put in place
(electric shock, cooling, fire protection, interference suppression).
●Only set the resolutions and refresh rates specified in the operating
manual for your monitor. Otherwise, you may damage the monitor. If
you are in any doubt, contact your sales outlet or customer service
center.

BX920 S2 Options Guide 17
Safety instructions
VCAUTION!
●Install only system extensions that satisfy the requirements and rules
governing safety, electromagnetic compatibility, and
telecommunications terminal equipment.

violate these safety regulations.
You can find out which system extensions are suitable from the
customer service center or your sales outlet.
●The components marked with a warning label (e.g. lightning symbol)
may only be opened, removed or exchanged by authorized, qualified
personnel. The hot-pluggable/hot-swapable components are
exceptions to this rule.
●If you cause a defect on the device by installing or exchanging system
extensions, the warranty will be invalidated.

●Incorrect replacement of batteries may lead to a risk of explosion. The
batteries may only be replaced with identical batteries or with a type
recommended by the manufacturer (see the technical manual for the
system board).
●Do not throw batteries into the trash can.
●Batteries must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations
concerning special waste.
●Replace the lithium battery on the system board in accordance with
the instructions in the technical manual for the system board.
●All batteries containing pollutants are marked with a symbol (a
crossed-out garbage can). In addition, the marking is provided with
the chemical symbol of the heavy metal decisive for the classification
as a pollutant:
Cd Cadmium
Hg Mercury
Pb Lead
