Chapter 3: Installation and Configuration
Installing Cable Retention Clips on Outlets (Optional)
32
If your PX device is designed to use a cable retention clip, install the clip
before connecting a power cord. A cable retention clip prevents the
connected power cord from coming loose or falling off.
The use of cable retention clips is highly recommended for regions with
high seismic activities, and environments where shocks and vibrations
are expected.
These optional clips come in various sizes to accommodate diverse
power cords used on IT equipment, which are connected to C13 or C19
outlets. You can request a cable retention kit containing different sizes of
clips from you reseller. Make sure you use a clip that fits the power cord
snugly to facilitate the installation or removal operation (for servicing).
Note: Some NEMA sockets on PSE-certified PDUs for Japan have
integral locking capability and do not need cable retention clips. See
Locking Outlets and Cords
To install and use a cable retention clip on the outlet:
1. Locate two tiny holes at two sides of an outlet.
2. Install the cable retention clip by inserting two ends of the clip into
the tiny holes.
