Figure 37 Final power cord routing
8. Proceed with routing data cables in the next tasks, leaving the power cord plugs for future connection when you
complete all other cabling tasks and are fully ready to test your connections.
Route data cables from the controller module
The storage enclosure chassis retains cable capture mechanisms for securing data cables to the chassis. You must first
secure data cables to the chassis, then route them through the CMA bracket. The CMA bracket protects data cables
during extension of the storage enclosure to the service position.
To route data cables from the controller modules:
1. Complete the following actions to number the data cables you selected for this installation:
a. Sequentially label eight mini-SAS cable pairs, starting with numbers 1 to 4 and 5 to 8.
b. Sequentially label two Ethernet cables with RJ-45 connectors, numbers 9 and 10.
2. Move the CMA bracket out of the way.
3. Loosen the thumbscrew on the center post of the cable capture arms, then rotate them away from the center post.
