Check that you have completed the mounting of the Cable Guides, Cable Management Arms, and Power Distribution Units as noted below. See Figure 2-2 for an example illustration showing how these three items may look when mounted. Attach Cable Guide to Rack Column Using the instructions included, attach the two Cable Guides to the rack column. Mount the Cable Management Arm The HP NetServer LT 6000r includes a Cable Management Arm.

interim power (see Table 2-1 on Uninterruptible Power Supplies) and
distribution (see the section of Chapter 2 titled "Power Distribution
Units").
Check that you have completed the mounting of the Cable Guides, Cable
Management Arms, and Power Distribution Units as noted below. See Figure 2-2
for an example illustration showing how these three items may look when
mounted.
