Cable Connections
102 7705 SAR-A Chassis Installation Guide
Cable Connections
All port cable connections are made from the front of the 7705 SAR-A. Ports can be
connected using copper or fiber-optic cables.
Ethernet and Copper Cables
Figure 23 illustrates how Ethernet and copper wire cables are routed on the 7705 SAR-A.
Cables can be routed to the left or the right of the chassis. Shielded cable must be used to
maintain EMC compliance.
Figure 23: Managing Cable Connections
Note:
• Ensure that you read and observe all the dangers and warnings described in the Site
Preparation chapter before connecting cables to the 7705 SAR-A.
• Ensure that cables are dressed such that they do not impede the insertion or removal
of other equipment in the rack.
• To maintain EMC compliance, cables that are shielded and grounded at both ends must
be used with interface connectors.
• To meet surge protection requirements, the cable shield for any open-ended cables
must be grounded by attaching the shield to a convenient chassis ground point, using
hardware suitable to provide a solid electrical and mechanical connection. In addition,
ensure that there is sufficient strain relief to remove any mechanical strain on the ground
connection due to cable movement.
