Cabling the BladeCenter S chassis

Attach all cables to the rear of the BladeCenter S chassis and secure them to the rack cabinet rails.

  1. Attach the power cords and other cables to the rear of the BladeCenter S chassis.
    Graphic illustrating the locations where the cables are attached.

    Up to three sets of power cords are provided with the BladeCenter S system. Use the power cords that you need for your environment.

  2. Route the power cables through the plastic strain-relief ties.
  3. Route all cables along the rack cabinet rails.
    Important
    Allow slack in all cables to avoid tension in the cables and to allow you to remove adjacent modules from the BladeCenter S chassis without having to remove the cables.
  4. Use the cable ties and cable straps to secure the cables together and attach them to the rack cabinet rails.
