clamps; then, reinstall the screws on the cable clamps and repeat step 1 and
step 2 for the other device, if you installed two devices.
4. Route the line cords left or right, toward the side of the rack cabinet; then, route
the line cords along the side brace towards the back of the rack cabinet and
secure them with the cable straps that come with this option.
5. Route each line cord toward a dedicated independent power source, such as a
UPS or electrical outlet. Use the provided cable straps to secure the line cords
along the way. Use the openings in your rack cabinet, if you must exit the rack
cabinet to connect to your power source.
6. After you connect both line cords to properly wired and grounded dedicated
independent power sources, you can connect one server (having up to four line
cords) to the four power outlets on the Rack PDU. Route all other power cables
neatly, and use cable straps to secure the cables that you plug into the outlets
on the Rack PDU.
