Chapter 2 Connecting and Routing Cables to the HP NetServer LXr 8000 Cable Routing: Creating the Cable Management Loop In a fully utilized HP NetServer LXr 8000, you can form a cable management loop by connecting cables with the server fully extended from the rack. (Be sure to extend the anti-tip foot from the front of the rack before extending the server. Also only extend one piece of equipment at a time.) A cable management loop allows the server to be extended by service personnel (without disconnecting data cables) for upgrades and maintenance. With the server in the fully extended position, attach all cables. Use the hookand-loop cable ties provided with the server to form bundles as shown in Figure 2-12. When the server is returned to its normal rack position, an adequate cable management loop will be formed. 37

Cable Routing: Creating the Cable Management
Loop
In a fully utilized HP NetServer LXr 8000, you can form a cable management
loop by connecting cables with the server fully extended from the rack. (Be sure
to extend the anti-tip foot from the front of the rack before extending the server.
Also only extend one piece of equipment at a time.)
A cable management loop allows the server to be extended by service personnel
(without disconnecting data cables) for upgrades and maintenance.
With the server in the fully extended position, attach all cables. Use the hook-
and-loop cable ties provided with the server to form bundles as shown in Figure
2-12. When the server is returned to its normal rack position, an adequate cable
management loop will be formed.
