For optimum router performance, verify the condition of the cables that connect to the
MPCs or MICs.
On a regular basis:
Use an upper cable manager and a lower cable manager (shown in
Figure 171 on page 339) to support cables and prevent cables from dislodging or
developing stress points.

NOTE: The MX2020 supports both standard and extended upper and lower
cable management.
Place excess cable out of the way in the upper and lower cable managers. Do not allow
fastened loops of cable to dangle from the connector or cable manager because this
stresses the cable at the fastening point. Putting fasteners on the loops helps to
maintain their shape.
