Removing The Retainer Brackets - HP Cluster Platform Interconnects v2010 Manual

5. Disconnect and remove each fiber-optic cable until all ports are unplugged.
Secure the cables out of the interconnect's removal path.
_______________________
Observe the maximum bend radius for fiber-optic cables. Bending
the cables too much can cause the glass core to break. A good rule
of thumb is to never bend more than a 2-inch radius.
6. Use a #1 Phillips screwdriver to remove the four 6-32 x .375 in Phillips
pan-head screws that secure each retainer bracket to the chassis (Figure 5-7).
The bracket remains attached to the rail.
