    2.2 Securing Cables Using the Straps To secure a cable using the straps, follow these steps: Connect the cable to the port in the PCI adapter and secure it mechanically by its clips, screws, or clamps. Route the cable over the strap, loop the strap through its D-ring, and secure the strap by its hook-and-loop closure.
  • Page 13 Unstrap the cable and remove its connector from the PCI card port. When disconnecting the cable, ensure that you do not bend it more than the recommended minimum bend radius. The cable specifications are provided in the documentation for your cluster type. Unlock and slide the server all the way out of the rack, as described in the documentation for the server rack kit.
