Cable Routing: Creating the Cable Management
Loop
A cable management loop allows the NetServer to be extended by service
personnel (without disconnecting data cables) for upgrades and maintenance.
In a fully utilized HP NetServer LH 4r, you can form a cable management loop
by connecting cables when the server is fully extended from the rack. (Be sure to
extend the anti-tip foot from the front of the rack before extending the server.
Also only extend one piece of equipment at a time.)
With the NetServer in the fully extended position, attach all cables. Use the hook-
and-loop cable ties provided with the server to form bundles as shown in Figure
2-13. When the NetServer is returned to its normal rack position, an adequate
cable management loop will be formed.
