Installing the Cable Management Brackets

Installing the Cable Management Brackets

The cable management brackets attach to the inner sides of the chassis at the interface processor end. (See Figure 7.)

Note For this procedure, the Cisco 7010 and Cisco 7505 chassis are functionally the same.

Use the brackets to keep network interface cables untangled and orderly, provide strain relief, and prevent cables from hindering access to interface processors in the lower interface processor slots. Install the brackets before connecting network interface cables to the interface processor ports; otherwise, you will probably need to disconnect the cables to install the screws that secure the brackets. Route interface cables through the cable management brackets as you connect them to the interface processor ports. If necessary, wrap cable ties through the holes provided to secure small-gauge cables.

Follow these steps to install the two cable management brackets on the interface processor end of the chassis:

Step 1 Verify that you have all the parts you will need: two cable management brackets and six M3 x 8-mm, Phillips panhead screws.

Step 2 At the interface processor end of the chassis, place a bracket on an inner side of the chassis and align the three holes in the bracket with the holes in the chassis. (See Figure 7.)

Step 3 Insert and finger-tighten three M3 Phillips screws from the inner side of the chassis, through the bracket and into the chassis.

Step 4 When all three screws are inserted, use the number 1 Phillips screwdriver to tighten the screws.

Step 5 Repeat Steps 2 through 4 for the second bracket.
