Installing the Power Cord Strain Relief

Routing Cables

1

Attach the I/O cable connectors to their respective connectors on the system back.
For details on cable connections, see your system’s Installation and Troubleshooting Guide and
the User’s Guide.

2

Route the power and I/O cables through the cable-management arm, using four loosely
secured releasable tie wraps (two in the middle and on each end of the cable-management arm).
Do not fully tighten the tie wraps at this time (see Figure 11).
Allow some cable slack in the cable-management arm to prevent damage to the cables.

3

Secure the cables to the cable-management arm:

a

After connecting the cables to the system, unscrew the thumbscrews that secure the front
of the system to the front vertical rail.

b

Slide the system forward to the fully extended position.

c

Route the cables along the cable-management arm, make any adjustments to the cable
slack at the hinge positions, and secure the cables to the cable-management arm with the
releasable tie wraps and the wire covers over the cable-management arm.

NOTE:

As you pull the system out to its furthest extension, the slide assemblies lock in the

extended position. To push the system back into the rack, press the slide release latch on the side
of the slide, and then slide the system completely into the rack.
