4-slot PCIe expansion cage 1 cable routing

Use the section to understand the cable routing for the 4-slot PCIe expansion cage 1.

Figure 1. Cable routing for the 4-slot PCIe expansion cage 1.
Cable routing for the 4-slot PCIe expansion cage
Note
Blue numbers/alphabets represent cable routing pathways under the fan cage.

The PCIe expansion cage power cable is routed through the right cable routing trough (as you are looking from the front of the server). The order of cable placement for cables in the right cable routing trough is as follows:

  1. PCIe 13 cable

  2. USB cable

  3. VGA cable

  4. PCIe expansion cage 1 power cable assembly

  5. Fan cage power cable. See Fan cage cable routing for system fan cage routing information.
