NOTE: It is not necessary to remove all the pieces of the 24 node cable management kit to remove a cable for repair or replacement. 1. To remove a cable in the upper part of the assembly, remove the top retainer bracket. It is not necessary to remove the middle spacer or bottom bracket to remove a cable from the group of cables on top of the middle spacer bracket. Simply remove the top retainer bracket to allow access to the cables on the top portion of the middle spacer bracket. 2. To remove a lower cable, remove the bottom retainer bracket only. This will keep the cables retained in the upper position while the lower cable is removed and replaced. Use tape to keep the remaining and functioning cables in place to prevent damage while replacing a separate non-functioning cable. 2.3 Removing the 24 Node Cable Management Bracket Kit To remove the 24 Node Cable Management Bracket Kit, follow these steps: 10 Installing the Kit
