• The HP MJF 3D printer prints in full strength nylon; if a different 3D printing technology is used
to produce the cable rack parts, the parts may break
• HDMI cable on 3-in-1 cable cannot be used (even with a HDMI to mini DP adapter)
• Adapters that do not support 4K resolution will not work
• When wrapping the HTC Vive Pro cable leave a large bend radius at the connector end so the
cable is not kinked and damaged
