Cable bundles
Cable management notes
The following rules apply when setting up cable management for a heavily- or fully-loaded system:
•
All cables must be firmly connected, supported, and contained.
•
Use cable cinches, spaced approximately every 24 inches, to secure all of the cables for each module into a single bundle. This
is especially important at the ends nearest the module connections. Each cable cinch holds up to 8 MRJ21 cables, or 48
RJ-45 cables.
•
For additional security, use cable ties to secure cables to the cable management system hardware on the sides of the unit.
•
The cable routing slots at the top and bottom of the unit are strong enough to hold many cables, but the more cable cinches
and cable ties you use, the more secure your cable management system will be.
•
If you bundle the cables correctly, you will be able to move the bundles to the side to access the modules for service, without
disturbing the connections. Refer to
•
Always route the cables for the outer-most modules out the sides of the unit. Route the cables for the innermost modules
through the top or through the bottom cable management hardware on the unit.
