Figure 45 Cable binding example 1 Different cables (power, signal, and grounding cables) should be routed and bound separately • rather than together in the cabinet. If they are close to each other, you can route them in cross-shape. For parallel routing, the space between power cable and signal cable should be no less than 30 mm (1.18 in).

Figure 47 Cable binding example 3 The spare cables or excessive cable parts should be folded and bound and placed at a right place • in the cabinet or on the cable routing slot. A “right place” refers to the place where the cables will not affect the operation of the switch or impair the switch, or be damaged.
