Figure 109. System Cable Routing Channels
The following procedure should be followed when installing data cables from a backplane to a PCIe* or
SAS/SATA source:
1.
Locate the PCIe* SlimSAS or SAS/SATA cable that supports the desired NVMe* or SAS/SATA drive
configuration and PCIe* source.
2.
Attach one end of the cable to matching PCIe*_SSD SlimSAS or SAS/SATA connectors on the backplane.
3.
Cables routed from the backplane to the server board SlimSAS connectors are routed through the
clearance in the middle of the fan assembly.
4.
Cables routed to connectors on add-in cards and/or riser cards and/or server board Mini-SAS HD
connectors are routed through the right chassis side wall. Remove the cable side wall by unfastening the
two screws holding the side wall to the chassis.
5.
Connect the other end of the PCIe* SlimSAS or SAS/SATA cable to the appropriate PCIe* source (server
board or optional sources).
6.
Using the two sidewall screws, attach the sidewall to the chassis.
