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.
