Cable management for third-party racks
For configurations with a third-party rack, HP recommends:
•
Using the HP s6500 4U Third Party Rail Kit (PN 601946-B21) to manage the front chassis cabling (this
might require the removal of the rack front door).
•
Using the cable management bracket that ships with the 2U and 4U rack-mounting hardware kit. The
following figure shows the cable management solution installed on a third-party rack.
