This chapter provides details on the Grid Director 4036E cable guide brackets installation and
cable management.
7.2
Cabling Guide Bracket Installation
NOTES:
Consider the overall cluster configuration to determine the optimal InfiniBand cable
length. Proper planning will produce orderly and maintainable cabling.
The rack space for the Grid Director 4036E should be free from obstructions such as
power strips.
The Cabling Guide brackets (CG-24) are optional; however, we recommend using the Cabling
Guide Brackets.
You can install the rack mounted Cabling Guide Brackets (CG-24) in the back of the rack
itself, facing out.
Rack rails should be free of PDU and power inlets.

To Install the Cabling Guide Brackets (CG-24):
1.
Install the Cabling Guide Bracket at the rear of the rack itself, on top or the rail bracket,
using two standard rack screws, as shown in Figure
7-2.
2.
Repeat on the other side.
