Cabling
HPE ProLiant Gen10 DL Servers Storage Cabling Guidelines
When installing cables, observe the following:
• All ports are labeled:
◦ System board ports
◦ Controller ports
◦ 12G SAS Expander ports
• Most data cables have labels near each connector with destination port information.
• Some data cables are pre-bent. Do not unbend or manipulate the cables.
• Before connecting a cable to a port, lay the cable in place to verify the length of the cable.
• When routing cables from the front to the rear of the server, use the cable channels on either side of the chassis.
