On a regular basis:
•
Use a standard cable manager or extended cable manager (shown in Figure 230 on page 618 and
Figure 231 on page 618) to support cables and prevent cables from dislodging or developing stress points.

•
Place excess cable out of the way in the standard or extended cable manager. Do not allow fastened
loops of cable to dangle from the connector or cable manager because this stresses the cable at the
fastening point. Putting fasteners on the loops helps to maintain their shape.
•
Keep the cable connections clean and free of dust and other particles, which can cause drops in the
received power level. Always inspect cables and clean them if necessary before connecting an interface.
•
Label both ends of the cables to identify them.
