Cable Management Requirements - HP A10500 Series Installation Manual

Cable management requirements

Make sure that you meet the following requirements:
Bind and put the cables inside the rack in an organized manner. Make sure the cables do not have
•
any kinks or sharp bends.
Figure 45 Cable binding example 1
Different cables (power, signal, and grounding cables) should be routed and bound separately
•
rather than together in the rack. 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).
The cable management bracket and cable routing slot inside and outside the rack should be
•
smooth and without sharp edges or tips.
The metal cable management hole should have a smooth and fully rounded surface or wear an
•
insulating bush.
Use the right type of ties to bind the cables. Do not bind cables with joined ties. The following types
•
of ties are available currently: 100 × 2.5 mm (3.94 × 0.10 in), 150 × 3.6 mm (5.91 × 0.14 in),
300 × 3.6 mm (11.81 × 0.14 in), 530 × 9 mm (20.87 × 0.35 in), and 580 × 13 mm (22.83 ×
0.51 in).
Cut the extra parts of the ties neatly after binding the cables, leaving no sharp or angular tips. See
