3 Insert a push rivet into the rivet hole on the blue hook-and-loop
fastener. The head of the rivet should be on the same side of the
fastener as the plastic loop.
4 Firmly press the push rivet through the hole in the 9U Library
Expansion Module described above. The hook-and-loop fastener
should now be secured to the library chassis.
5 Plug the one end of the Ethernet cable into one of the four Ethernet
hub ports on the LCB.
6 Plug the other end of the Ethernet cable into the appropriate port on
the 9U Library Expansion Module.
If the FC I/O blade is installed in the module’s upper I/O blade bay,
plug the cable into the Ethernet port labeled UPPER. If the FC I/O
blade is installed in the module’s lower I/O blade bay, plug the cable
into the Ethernet port labeled LOWER.
7 Open the wire saddle nearest the LCB, place the Ethernet cable
inside, and snap the wire saddle shut.
8 Repeat for the other wire saddle.
9 If there is excess Ethernet cable, loop the excess cable into a bundle in
the shape of a figure-eight. The bundle should be small enough to
hold comfortably with one hand, or about six inches in length.
10 Wrap the bundle with the hook-and-loop fastener. Thread the strap
through the plastic loop and tighten the strap around the bundled
cable. Secure the strap by pressing it down.
The Ethernet cable is now secured to the 9U Library Expansion Module.
Repeat these steps to secure other Ethernet cables, if necessary.
Once complete, the Ethernet cabling for a an ML6030 Control Module
plus two PowerVault ML6000 9U Library Expansion Modules containing
four FC I/O blades should appear similar to Figure 31 on page 243.
Note: If your module chassis does not have the drilled hole, use
an M5 thumbscrew to attach the black hook-and-loop
fastener to the nearest available M5 threaded hole on the
lower right of any module chassis.
