IBM® xSeries 220: Installation Guide
When you cable the server, ensure that you route the power, keyboard, and mouse
cables through the two plastic cable ties on the rear of the server. Route the power
cable through the upper cable tie; route the keyboard and mouse cables through the
lower cable tie.
Notes:
1. The illustrations in this document might differ slightly from your hardware.
2. Refer to the documentation that comes with your options for additional cabling
instructions. It might be easier for you to route any cables before you install
certain options.
3. To install your server in a rack, refer to the Tower-to-Rack Conversion Kit manual
and the Rack Installation Instructions that are provided with your optional rack
hardware for complete installation and removal instructions.
4. Cable identifiers are printed on the cables that come with your server and
options. Use these identifiers to connect the cables to the correct connectors. For
example, the hard disk drive cables are labeled HDD.
