Attaching the Optional Cable Guide

Two cable guides are included in the accessory kit shipped with the SN 5428-2 Storage Router. If the storage router is installed in a rack, you can attach the cable guides to the left and right rail brackets using the supplied black screws. (See Figure 2-9.) Attaching the cable guides will prevent the cables from obscuring the front panel of the storage router and the other devices in the rack.
