handling capabilities of three-phase distribution can result in more efficient
and less costly installations that require fewer AC cables and PDUs.

Cable management

Rack installations should be planned for operational efficiency, ease of
maintenance, and safety. Hitachi offers the Backend Configuration Utility
(BECK), a graphical, cable-management application that can relieve the
typical cable congestion created when populating a rack with storage systems
and their accessories.

Cable retention

Unintentional unplugging or unseating of a power cable can have a serious
impact on the operation of an enterprise storage system. Unlike data cables,
power connectors do not have built-in retention mechanisms to prevent this
from happening.
To prevent accidental unplugging or unseating of power cables, the storage
system includes a rubber cable-retention strap near the AC receptacle on
each controller. These straps, shown in the following image, loop around the
neck of a power cable connector, and the notched tail is slipped over the hook
of the restraining bar fixed to the storage system.
