Dell PowerEdge PDU Metered LCD Cabling PowerEdge R710 - Page 6

Cabling the Dell™ PowerEdge™ R710 Figure 3: Routing the Cables Through the CMA Cables entering CMA should have a small amount of slack to avoid cable strain when CMA is extended. NOTE: Do not store excess cable slack inside the CMA. The cable may protrude through the CMA causing binding and potentially damaging the cable. 3. Once all the cables are routed through the CMA, dress the cables between the back of the system and the entrance of the CMA with the tie wraps provided in the CMA kit. The tie wraps are shown in yellow in all illustrations. 4. Clip off the excess length of material from the tie wraps and make sure that the tie wraps are positioned to avoid interference with adjacent systems. 5. Return the CMA to the closed (retracted) position. 6. Extend the system from the rack to verify there is sufficient slack in the cables at both the entrance and exit of the CMA. 7. See Figure 4 for an example of a completed left side mounted CMA installation. Page 4
