Cable Management

Perform the following steps to install the cable management kit on the cooling module and the booster cooling module (see Figure 7-17).

Step 1 Install the two short fan panel brackets onto the sides of the cooling unit, one on each side using two thread forming screws for each bracket.

If a rear rail is being used to mount the plenum, use the protruding flange to attach to the rail using two thread forming screws and washers (supplied with the cooling unit install kit). If there is limited access, use the procedures described under “Limited Access” section on page 7-10.Install the power and fan cable management assembly onto the two short fan panel brackets using two screws with locking nuts for each bracket.

Step 2 Install the cable management panel onto the outer brackets using four screws, locking nuts, and washers for each bracket.

Step 3 Install one or both cable supports onto the MGX 8220 shelf above the cooling module, using a number 10-32 thread forming screw for each support. Use two washers between the cable supports on the left support only.
