Attaching Cable Management Trays

Step 4
After the chassis is connected to earth ground, connect PSU cables to power up the chassis.
Attaching Cable Management Trays
The Cisco UCS X9508 server chassis offers up to four cable management trays (UCSX-9508-CMA) to
organize the cables for the intelligent fabric module (IFM) cables. The trays are interchangeable, so you can
use them for either IFM cables. There are no specific cable management trays for the top and bottom of the
chassis.
You can use one tray for each IFM installed in the Cisco UCS X9508 server chassis but Cisco recommends
that you use one tray for all IFM cables.
Note
The chassis also has cable management arms, which organize the PSU cables. The cable management arms
are different from the cable management tray, which organizes IFM cables.
Because the cable management tray sits in front of an IFM , you should remove the cable management tray
to allow access to the IFM. For example, if you need to access IFM 2, you should remove the cable management
tray 2
Cable management trays attach to the server chassis by hooks at the top rear of each tray.
