Cabling

Cabling overview

This section provides guidelines that help you make informed decisions about cabling the server and

hardware options to optimize performance.
For information on cabling peripheral components, refer to the white paper on high-density deployment at

the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website (

http://www.hpe.com/products/servers/platforms

CAUTION:

When routing cables, always be sure that the cables are not in a position where

they can be pinched or crimped.
