Notes:

• Order plenum-rated cables for sites where cables will be routed through HVAC ductwork. Plenum cables have fire- retardant coating to prevent release of toxic gases and smoke in case of fire, so cost more than riser cables.

• Order riser cables for sites where cables will be installed in vertical riser shafts. Riser cables cannot be used in ple- num areas unless specifically permitted by local codes. Riser cables provided by Sun are compliant with the stan- dard flame spread test requirements outlined in UL specification 1666.

• When ordering cables, add a ‘service loop’ of at least 4.6 m (15 ft.) of extra cable at each end of the measured VTSS-to-host length to allow the VTSS to be moved as needed for servicing, room reconfigurations, etc. Store ex- tra cabling either on the floor beneath the VTSS or inside the VTSS, but not in an under-floor cable trough. If in doubt as to where locate the loop, contact the data center manager or Sun Technical Support.
