ANAGEMENT
The HCP-1200 uses Advanced 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.

There are three black jacks and two red jacks on the back of your HCP-1200 PSU. These jacks are for the optional
cables that come with your power supply. The black connectors are used for Molex or SATA cables and the red
ones for PCI-Express connectors.

ISTRIBUTION
The HCP-1200 uses eight se12
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.
