Install the rear cable cover

Use this information to install the rear cable cover.

Before you install the rear cable cover:
  1. Read the following section(s) to ensure that you work safely.

  2. If the PCIe#2-B cable is connected to the rear riser assembly, make sure it is routed under the PCIe#1-A cable through the gap between the two front riser power connectors.

  3. If the PCIe#1-A cable is connected to the rear riser assembly, make sure it is routed above the PCIe#2-B cable through the gap between the two front riser power connectors.

  4. When both riser assemblies are installed, make sure the front riser auxiliary power cable is looped back into the gap between the two front riser power connectors, and routed above the PCIe#2-B cable.
