Pass-thru module architecture
The pass-thru module provides a 10GBASE-KR-to-SFI interface conversion, connecting through the
enclosure backplane to 10GBASE-KR lanes from 16 server blades and brings out Small Form Factor
Interface signals terminating in SFP/SFP+ transceiver connectors on the faceplate of the module.
Introduction

Port mapping
For detailed port mapping information, see the HP BladeSystem Enclosure Quick Setup Guide or the HP
BladeSystem Enclosure Setup and Installation Guide on the HP website
Dual pass-thru modules
In a dual pass-thru module configuration, two pass-thru modules in the HP BladeSystem c7000 Enclosure
provide redundant paths to the network ports on the server blades.
Redundant paths to server bays
In a dual pass-thru module configuration, redundant Ethernet signals from each server blade are routed
through the enclosure backplane to separate pass-thru modules within the enclosure. This configuration
provides redundant paths to each server bay.
Redundant Ethernet signals from each blade server are routed through the enclosure backplane to
separate pass-thru modules within the enclosure. However, port to server mapping varies based on the
type of server blade installed.
XModem
The pass-thru module supports XModem for transferring files during firmware upgrade using the serial
management port. XModem sends blocks of data and includes an error-detection system called a
checksum. When the data is received, the error detection system ensures that the entire message reached
its destination. If not, the receiving computer sends a request for data retransmission.

Electrostatic discharge
Preventing electrostatic discharge
To prevent damaging the system, be aware of the precautions you need to follow when setting up the
system or handling parts. A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor may damage
system boards or other static-sensitive devices. This type of damage may reduce the life expectancy of the
device.
To prevent electrostatic damage:
•
•
•
•
•
Avoid hand contact by transporting and storing products in static-safe containers.
Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at static-free workstations.
Place parts on a grounded surface before removing them from their containers.
Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.
Always be properly grounded when touching a static-sensitive component or assembly.
Grounding methods to prevent electrostatic
discharge
Several methods are used for grounding. Use one or more of the following methods when handling or
installing electrostatic-sensitive parts:
•
Use a wrist strap connected by a ground cord to a grounded workstation or computer chassis. Wrist
straps are flexible straps with a minimum of 1 megohm ±10 percent resistance in the ground cords.
To provide proper ground, wear the strap snug against the skin.
•
Use heel straps, toe straps, or boot straps at standing workstations. Wear the straps on both feet
when standing on conductive floors or dissipating floor mats.
•
•
Use conductive field service tools.
Use a portable field service kit with a folding static-dissipating work mat.
If you do not have any of the suggested equipment for proper grounding, have an authorized reseller
install the part.
For more information on static electricity or assistance with product installation, contact an authorized
reseller.
