Power cord routing and retention
Proper power cord routing and retention ensures that your system remains connected to a power supply.
The primary purpose of power cord retention is to prevent unexpected power loss to your system that can
potentially cause system operations to stop functioning.
Different types of power cord retention are available. Some of the most commonly used types of retention
include:
• Cable management arms
• Rings
• Clamps
• Plastic straps
• Hook-and-loop fasteners
Power cord retainers are typically found at the rear of the unit and on the chassis or pedestal near the
alternating current (AC) power cord input.
Systems that are rack-mounted and are on rails must use the provided cable management arm.
Systems that are rack-mounted, but are not on rails must use the provided rings, clamps, or straps.
