Connecting Cables

Now that the processors are installed, the next step is to connect the cables to
the serverboard.

Connecting Data Cables

The cables used to transfer data from the peripheral devices have been carefully
routed in preconfigured systems to prevent them from blocking the flow of cooling
air that moves through the system from front to back. If you need to disconnect
any of these cables, you should take care to reroute them as they were originally
after reconnecting them (make sure the red wires connect to the pin 1 locations). If
you are configuring the system, keep the airflow in mind when routing the cables.
Refer to Chapter 1 for details on cables used in the F618R3-FT server.
