described in the procedure "Installing a 19-inch rack-mounted termination
panel" (page 240).
2
Secure a cable management bracket to each side of the sparing panel
with 4 of the provided screws.
Note: The cable management brackets allow you to neatly route cables
from the front of the sparing panel to the rear of the device.
3
Align, plug in and fasten the D-sub connectors of all the inter-panel flexi-
cables into the faceplate of the sparing panels so that each OBPn
connects to each corresponding IBPn below it. Omit connecting flexi-
cables to the bottom row of connectors on the Main A (bottom) panel.

the latch along the long axis of the connector. The latch engages both
connector studs in one motion.
