When you replace a cable and 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 NS14000 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.
Several Integrity NonStop NS14000 enclosures, specifically the NonStop Blade Element and LSU,
integrate CMS provisions for routing and securing the fiber-optic cables to prevent damaging
them when the enclosures are moved out and back into the cabinet for servicing.
