I/O Connecting Cables

Use an I/O Connecting Cable to connect the CPU Rack to an Expansion I/O
Backplane or to connect an Expansion I/O Backplane to additional Expansion
I/O Backplane.
Fasten the connectors with the locks provided on the connectors to secure
the connection between the cable connector and the connector on the Back-
plane. If the connectors are not properly connected or the I/O Connecting
Cable is disconnected during CPU operation, errors such as I/O BUS error
and I/O SETTING error will occur.

The length of the connecting cable depends on the distance between the two
Racks to be connected. The length of the cable should be approximately 20
cm longer than the distance between the two Racks.
