Select a Fabric board in the bottom chassis and position the InfiniBand cable connector
with the pulling tab at the right of the cable, and push the connector in place.

Verify that the cable is inserted properly into the connector by gently tugging the cable;
verify that the Link State green-colored LED lights (and does not flash) indicating a good
physical connection.
5.
Gently fasten all cables in place with Velcro tie or tie wraps.
Avoid using tie wrap guns or similar tools; do not fasten the InfiniBand cable too tightly, as this
may cause irreversible damage to the cables. Tie wraps and zip ties can damage the cables.
Velcro tie is the recommended option.
Do not bend the InfiniBand cables too sharply. The recommended minimum bend radius is 4"
(10 cm).
