The COM2 serial port can be used either as an emergency management port (EMP) or as a
normal serial port. As an EMP, COM2 is used as a communication path by the Server
Management RS-232 connection to the BMC. This port can provide a level of emergency
management through an external modem. The RS-232 connection can be monitored by the
BMC when the system is in a powered down (standby) state.
Table 52 lists the signals present on the COM2 serial port header.

Port
The IEEE 1284-compatible parallel port, used primarily for a printer, sends data in parallel
format. The parallel port is accessed through a D-subminiature 25-pin connector.
