Cable management, Cabling guidelines

Page 31 highlights

Cable management Cabling guidelines • Keep cables away from major heat sources like the heat sink assembly. • Do not jam cables on top of expansion cards or memory modules. Printed circuit cards are not designed to withstand excessive pressure. • Keep cables clear of sliding or moveable parts to prevent cutting or crimping. • Do not sharply bend any cable. A sharp bend can break the internal wires. • Never bend an SATA/SAS data cable tighter than a 30 mm (1.18 in) radius. • Never crease an SATA/SAS data cable. • Do not rely on components like the drive cage, power supply, or computer cover to push cables down into the chassis. • Use supplied cable management straps to secure cables. NOTE: Always follow good cable management practices when working inside the computer. To remove power supply power cables and RPS from system board connectors respectively use the following steps: 1. Squeeze on the top of the retaining latch attached to the cable end of the connector. 2. Grasp the cable end of the connector and pull it straight up. CAUTION: When removing cables, always pull the connector - NEVER pull on the cable. Pulling the cable could cause cable damage and result in power supply failure.

Cabling guidelines
Keep cables away from major heat sources like the heat sink assembly.
Do not jam cables on top of expansion cards or memory modules. Printed circuit cards are not
designed to withstand excessive pressure.
Keep cables clear of sliding or moveable parts to prevent cutting or crimping.
Do not sharply bend any cable. A sharp bend can break the internal wires.
Never bend an SATA/SAS data cable tighter than a 30 mm (1.18 in) radius.
Never crease an SATA/SAS data cable.
Do not rely on components like the drive cage, power supply, or computer cover to push cables
down into the chassis.
Use supplied cable management straps to secure cables.
NOTE:
Always follow good cable management practices when working inside the computer.
To remove power supply power cables and RPS from system board connectors respectively use the
following steps:
1.
