## 3.6 Bundling Cables

Precautions

l The power cables and other cables must be well bundled.

l When you bundle fibers, make sure that the fibers at the connectors have natural bends or bends of the large radius.

l Do not bundle fibers and twisted pairs too tightly because this may press hard the fibers and affect their service time and transmission performance.

Steps

(1) Bind the drooping part of the fibers and twisted pairs of each board, and lead them to both sides of the chassis for convenience.

(2) On both sides of the chassis, fasten the fibers and twisted pairs to the cabinet cable management ring or cabling chute.

(3) For power cables, bundle them closely along the bottom of the chassis, in a straight line wherever possible.
