provided as part of the package design
The Magnum P62-Series Hardened Switches have a tie wrap holder as part of the base
plate of the unit for cable strain relief. The strain-relief feature is applicable to power cables as
well as to Ethernet cables, both twisted-pair copper and fiber. Cable tie-wraps can secure the
cables and can be attached to the base plate HOOK provided at the bottom-front of the unit. In the
event that the attached cable is pulled, the tie-wrap cable strain relief feature protects the cable
connection from coming loose. This feature provides a more reliable and robust installation and
operation.
