Attaching The Cable Management Arm - HP ML570 - ProLiant - G2 Setup And Installation Manual

Attaching the Cable Management Arm

A double-hinged cable management arm and fasteners ship with each server. The
cable management arm attaches to the server's cable management arm bracket and to
the rear frame of the rack. All cables leading to and from the server are tied to this
arm. The two hinges enable the cable management arm to swing out of the way when
you need to access the system tray.
IMPORTANT: For easier handling, slide the server into the rack before attaching the cable
management arm to the cable management arm bracket. Attaching the arm before loading the
server into the rack may interfere with the loading process.
To attach the cable management arm:
1. Identify the cable management arm holes on the outside of the rear of the rack
that you marked with the template. Align the end of the cable management arm
with the marks on the outside of the rear post of the rack. Insert the tabs on the
cable management arm into the marked holes on the interior of the vertical posts
on the rear of the rack (1).
2. Align the cable management arm support bracket (screw retaining plate) on the
outside of the rack and tighten the thumbscrews to secure it in place (2).
