Cabling
This chapter provides details on the 4036/2036 switch cable guide brackets installation and
cable management.
7.1
Cabling Guide Bracket Installation
NOTES:
Selecting the optimal InfiniBand cable length depends on the overall cluster configuration and
requires proper planning to produce orderly and maintainable cabling.
The rack space for the 4036/2036 switch should be free from obstructions such as power strips.
The Cabling Guide brackets (CG-24) are optional; however, it is recommended to use the
Cabling Guide Brackets.
The rack mounted Cabling Guide Brackets (CG-24) should be installed in the back of the rack
itself, facing out.
Rack rails should be free of PDU and power inlets.
