Attaching the Interface Cables
Step 6
Plug the InfiniBand cable connector into the CX4 X2 transceiver connector. (See
Figure 3-45
.) Make
sure that the InfiniBand cable connector is aligned with the X2 transceiver.

Step 7
Carefully route the InfiniBand network cable through the cable management brackets on your system.
Figure 3-46
shows how the Infiniband cable should be routed through either a horizontal cable
management bracket or a vertical cable management bracket to provide adequate strain relief and support
to prevent connector sag or skew.
Note
Make sure that you route the InfiniBand cable through cable management brackets to provide
adequate strain relief and cable support when cabling CX4 X2 transceivers. The InfiniBand
cable is heavy. Without proper support, the InfiniBand cable can cause the cable connector to
sag or skew. Misalignment between the cable connector and the transceiver connector can cause
intermittent connections between the cable connector pins and the CX4 X2 transceiver pins.
