Cable Installation

All cables can be inserted or removed with the unit powered on.
To insert a cable, press the connector into the port receptacle until the connector is firmly seated.
The LED indicator, corresponding to each data port, will light when the physical connection is
established. When a logical connection is made, the relevant port LED will turn on.
To remove a cable, disengage the locks and slowly pull the connector away from the port recep-
tacle. The LED indicator for that port will turn off when the cable is unseated.
For full cabling guidelines, ask your Mellanox representative for a copy of Mellanox Cable Man-
agement Guidelines and FAQ.

Do not force the cable into the cage with more than 40 newtons / 9.0 pounds / 4kg
force. Greater insertion force may cause damage to the cable or to the cage.
The SN2410 system includes ports of different types. Figure 43 does not apply to the
SFP28 ports. See Figure 47.
