Chapter 3: Preparing the Cabinet for Installation
Cables are usually run into the side cable apertures of a cabinet and straight onto
cable trays fitted to the cabinet frame (see Figure 3-5). With the interconnecting
server and equipment, cables are dressed to the side and rear.
Most equipment fans expel hot waste air to the rear of the cabinet.. Disorganized
cabling can inhibit airflow movement, so be careful when dressing cabling. We
recommend that cables are dressed to the side rear infill panels.
Fitting a cable entry box (QCE-CEB)
Select a cable entry point and remove four M6 screws. Then remove the gland
plate.
The gland plate will also be held in place by the adhesive stuck to the soundproof
material; this means some force may be required to remove the gland plate. The
soundproof material is partly precut and will require only the adhesive layer to be
cut by a sharp blade before being removed.
One cable entry box (see Figure 3-2) is supplied with each cabinet. If you need
more cable entry boxes, contact Black Box Technical Support at 724-746-5500
or info@blackbox.com.
