4. Refer to the appropriate cabling procedure included with the projector
communications kit to continue the installation.
When routing cables from one unit to another in a rack, do NOT allow the cables
to be supported by the System 4xi (see Figure 2-7). Use "Tie Wraps", "Rip-Ties"
or other devices, to secure the cables at some point in the rack that is above the
rear panel connectors. Loosely hanging cables may be stepped upon, resulting
in damage to cables and equipment, as well as injury to personnel.
The example shown in Figure 2-6 has the cables tied to the rack above the
connections to the equipment. This allows an unobstructed view of the rear panel
connectors, and prevents the cable weight from pulling down on the equipment.
