INTELLIGENT HYBRID CABLE MANAGEMENT
The HCP-850 uses Intelligent Hybrid Cable Management. Cables that are important or mandatory are permanently connected to the PSU for the highest quality power delivery. There are modular jacks on the back of the PSU to add additional cables as needed. Using only the cables you need will reduce clutter and improve airflow inside your case. For the list of connected and optional cables, see Table 3.
MODULAR CABLE JACKS
There are three 5-pin black jacks and five 10-pin red jacks on the back of your HCP-850 PSU. These jacks are for the optional cables that come with your power supply. A modular 10-pin connector system allows you plug 5-pin connectors into the 10-pin jacks if you run out of 5-pin jacks.
+12 VOLT RAIL DISTRIBUTION
The HCP-850 uses four separate +12 volt power rails. Different connectors are hooked up to separate circuits to aid in the balanced distribution of power between devices in your computer. The +12V rails have been assigned to different connectors, as shown in Table 2, to prevent voltage sags in one device due to sudden demands for power by another device.
