Cable label wraps
Each VNX series platform comes with a cable label wrap guide or set of cable label
wraps to affix to the cables on your VNX series platform. These labels should be
affixed to the appropriate cables as you connect the cables to your VNX series
platform.
shows an example of the cable wrap guide and how to affix the
cable label wrap to a cable.
Note:
If your VNX series platform was assembled at the factory, all the cable labels have been
affixed to the cables except for any DAEs you have ordered. Additionally, if your VNX series
platform was not assembled at the factory, the cable kit supplied with your product will have
all the required cables already labeled except for the DAEs.
