Cable Management System
This label identifies the cable connecting the p-switches at U31 of both cabinet 1 and 2
at slot 3, connectors 1 or 2, which are crosslink connections between the two
p-switches.
Each label conveys this information:
In cases where you replace a cable or when you either install or move an enclosure,
be sure to update information on the labels at both ends of the cables.
Cable Management System
Integrity NonStop NS-series systems include the cable management system (CMS) to
protect all power, fiber-optic, and CAT5 Ethernet cables within the systems. The CMS
maintains a 25 millimeter (1 inch) minimum bend radius for the fiber-optic cables and
provides strain relief for all cables.
Nn Identifies the node number. One node can include up to
six cabinets.
Rn Identifies the cabinet number within the node.
Un Identifies the offset that is the physical location of the
component within the cabinet. n is the lowest U number
in the cabinet that the component occupies.
nn.nn All but LSU: Identifies the slot location and port
connection of the component.
LSU: Identifies the position of the logic board and optics
adapter pair and the port connection of the optics
adapter.
