Chapter 3 Installing the Switch
Installing a Catalyst 6509-NEB or Catalyst 6509-NEB-A Switch Chassis
Installing the Cable Management System (Catalyst 6509-NEB-A Only)
This section describes the installation procedures for the cable management system (CABLETRAY-09)
on the Catalyst 6509-NEB-A switch.
Note
The cable management system is shipped with the extended cable guide installed but can be used with
the supplied standard cable guide. Use the extended cable guide with Ethernet and Fast Ethernet modules
(24 to 48 ports) using 10/100 cable. Use the standard cable guide with low port-density modules (up to
16 ports) using fiber and coax cable. We recommend that you install the cable management system
before replacing the cable guide. See the
“Replacing the Cable Guide” section on page 3-33
for
replacement procedures.
To install the cable management system, perform these steps:
Step 1
Place the cable management system against the chassis, as shown in
Figure 3-14
, and tighten the captive
installation screws.
Step 2
Assure that the hinge is flat against the chassis, and install four 6-32 screws to secure the back plate to
the chassis.

Note
To route the cables through the cable guide, remove the front panel, and attach the interface
cables to the modules. See the
“Attaching the Interface Cables” section on page 3-61
for
information on attaching the interface cables.
