This section provides cable routing information for the server model with two 8 x 2.5-inch SAS/SATA and one
8 x 2.5-inch AnyBay (Gen 5) front backplanes.
To connect power cables for the front backplane(s), refer to
drive bays" on page
312.
To connect signal cables for the front backplane(s), refer to the following cable routing scenarios depending
on your server configuration.
