Chapter 3. Internal cable routing
Some of the components in the server have internal cables and cable connectors. For details, see the
following cable routing sections:
•
"CFF HBA/RAID adapter" on page 57
•
"Front I/O" on page 58
•
"Intrusion switch" on page 59
•
"RAID super capacitor modules" on page 60
•
"M.2 drive backplane" on page 62
•
"16-EDSFF drive backplane" on page 63
•
"7mm drive backplane" on page 64
•
"2.5-inch/3.5-inch drive backplane (power)" on page 65
•
"2.5-inch/3.5-inch drive backplane (signal)" on page 66
Read the following guidelines carefully before you connect any cables:
• Power off the server before you connect or disconnect any internal cables.
• See the documentation that comes with any external devices for additional cabling instructions. It might
be easier for you to route cables before you connect the devices to the server.
• Cable identifiers of some cables are printed on the cables that come with the server and optional devices.
Use these identifiers to connect the cables to the correct connectors.
• Ensure that the relevant cables pass through the cable clips.
