information, see "Cabling the server and setting up the console" on page 15.
8. Route the power cords and other cables (including keyboard, monitor, and mouse cables, if required)
on the cable-management arm (1), as shown in Figure 18. Attach all cables to the rear of the server

Note: Allow slack in all cables to avoid tension in the cables when the cable-management arm moves.
