Figure 1-9. Routing the Power Cords power receptacle housing power cord plug CAUTION: Allow some slack in each cable as you route them around hinges in the cable-management arm. Routing Cables 1 Attach the I/O cable connectors to their respective connectors on the system back panel. 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 tie-wraps (two in the middle and one on each end of the cablemanagement arm). Do not fully tighten the tie-wraps at this time (see Figure 1-10). 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 needed to the cable slack at the hinge positions, secure the cables to the cablemanagement arm with the tie-wraps, and close the wire covers over the cable-management arm. 2-Post Rack Installation 1-15
