The c-Class Blade cable management bracket aligns and supports cables that lead from a 4x DDR IB
(InfiniBand) Switch Module mounted in the rear of the c-Class server blade enclosure to another switch
module, or to a similar interconnect device. The kit provides strain relief for the cables connected to the
individual InfiniBand interconnect ports and ensures a good connection. It also ensures the correct bend
radius for thecable and provides channels for cable routingand cable management. One cable management
bracket is required for each InfiniBand switch module.
