Managing cables
The cable management comb and shortened chassis door introduced in the 4/256 SAN Director
allow for simple cable management. The comb allows additional space between the chassis and
shelf and can be installed without service disruption. The shortened chassis door design enables the
fiber cables to exit the front of the vertical rack mounting rails.
The 4/256 SAN Director cables can be managed in a variety of ways, including the following:
• Routed down through the cable management comb
• Routed out either side of the chassis
• Cable channels on the sides of the cabinet
• Patch panels
Two items are provided to assist with cable management:
• Cable management comb
• Cable guides (pillars)
