6.8.2 Cable Routing
Ä
CAUTION:
The drive data and power cables must be kept clear of the power supply and the power
supply fan to avoid damage or restrict air flow.
Follow these guidelines when routing the cables in the computer:
1. Route the optical drive audio cable
1
along the back of the optical drive and then down,
alongside of the drive cage to the floor of the chassis. Route this cable behind the hard drive
data cable. Keep the cable clear of the power supply fan.
2. Route the optical drive power cable
2
down, alongside of the drive cage to the floor of the
chassis. Keep the cable clear of the power supply fan.
3. Fold the diskette drive flat-ribbon data cable
3
near the connector on the drive. Route the
cable up high on the drive cage (near the cable connectors), then folding again to lay beneath
the optical drive data cable. Be sure the diskette drive cable does not rest on the power supply
and does not interfere with the power supply fan.
4. The cable clip
4
is attached to the back of the drive cage and secures the diskette drive power
cable. Keep this cable away from the power supply fan.
5. The critical area designated
5
is the top of the power supply and its fan access area. Keep all
cables away from the top of the power supply to prevent pinching or cutting. Also, keep
cables away from the fan blade area to prevent them from interfering with the fan’s rotation
or reducing the air flow.
