11.1.1DB-9 Interface Port

Using the following directions to attach the smaller enclosed ferrite bead clamp to the communication cable as shown at right:

1.Open the ferrite bead.

2.Place the communication cable inside the ferrite bead groove.

3.Position the ferrite bead as close as possible to the end of the cable that connects to the DB-9 connector of the UPS.

4.Close the ferrite bead so that the ferrite bead’s case snaps closed with the cable routed through the ferrite bead’s case.

Run cable through ferrite bead case
