Good info... things have defintely changed with this on the i5's. I
believe the current firmware update is more like SF220_75... so you may
want to go after that one instead, but I think SF220_51 worked on our
development box for the UPS issue.

Thanks Chad!
I found this on IBM web.
http://www-912.ibm.com/s_dir/slkbase.nsf/1ac66549a21402188625680b0002037e/34af6804d80c8a8586256ef1006c9d12?OpenDocument&Highlight=0,ups
Document Title
Connecting a UPS to an IBM® eServer(tm) i5 System
Document Description
Required fix: Model 520 systems must have fix level SF220_51 or higher.
Required cable: Before connecting a UPS to your model 520 or model 570 IBM®
eServer(tm) i5 system, you will need a UPS cable converter - feature code
1827 - part number 97P4299. (At some point, UPS manufacturers may provide
the converter cables with the UPS or they may provide a UPS sensing cable
that will not need the converter, but for now FC1827 can be ordered from
IBM.)
Referring to the following diagram, connect side B of the serial to UPS
converter cable (with the external threads) to the top port on the back of
your system. Connect side A of the serial to UPS converter cable (with the
internal threads) to the vendor supplied UPS cable.
For the model 570 and rack mounted model 520: Connect the UPS sensing cable
to the top serial port (the serial ports are located on the back of the
system unit to the far left).
For the desktop model 520: Connect the UPS cable to the right serial port
(the serial ports are located on the back of the system unit at the very
top).

Ämne: Re: Port for UPS on i520
There are two serial ports on the rear of the 520. We have a rack mounted
model and it's the top serial port, which is labeled 'T2'. I'm not sure
how they're oriented on a standalone model. Be aware that some PTFs and/or
firmware updates may be required to get the machine's firmware up to the
correct level so that it will detect the cable. On one of our 520s we
needed to power down the system after updating the firmware and actually
remove power to the 520 for several minutes in order to get the firmware
updated completely before the cable's presence would register (per IBM's
suggestion after the cable still wouldn't register).
Also, there is a short 'conversion' cable from IBM that you will need with
the 520... it attaches to the T2 serial port and then to your UPS cable.
IBM's hardware support group is getting pretty familiar with these items
now, but the first few calls took a while! ;)

Hi!
I have a new i520.
Where do i connect my UPS cable on a i520?
I can't find any J14 port.
