Installing a security rope clip
To help prevent hardware theft, you can add a security rope clip and cable to the
server. After you add the security cable, make sure that it does not interfere with
other cables that are connected to the server.
Before you begin, obtain the following items:
v A flat-blade screwdriver
v
An adjustable wrench
v A 19 mm (0.75 in.) rope clip or wire rope (similar to National Manufacturing
number 3230, stock number 176-735)
v
Threaded nuts that fit the rope clip
v A security cable
v
A lock, such as a combination lock or padlock
To install a rope clip, complete the following steps:
1. Turn off the server and all attached devices. Disconnect all external cables and
power cords; then, remove the side cover. See “Removing the side cover” on
page 9.
2. Use a screwdriver to remove the two metal knockouts.
3. Insert the rope clip through the rear panel; then, attach and tighten the nuts.
4. Thread the cable through the rope clip and around an object that is not part of
or permanently secured to the building structure or foundation, and from which
the cable cannot be removed. Fasten the cable ends together with a lock. After
you add the security cable, make sure that it does not interfere with other
cables that are connected to the server.
