24 Chapter 2: Hardware installation
Installing the cable adapter bracket
To install the cable adapter bracket, proceed with the following steps:
1. Make sure that your Matrox Rapixo CXP board is fastened to the computer chassis.
2. Attach the cable adapter bracket to internal auxiliary I/O connector 2/3 on the
Matrox Rapixo CXP board. When attaching the flat ribbon cables of the adapter
bracket, position the cable so that the black wire is on the same side as the bracket
of the Matrox Rapixo CXP board.
3. Slide the bracket of the cable adapter bracket into the opening at the back of the
selected slot.
4. Anchor the bracket to the chassis using the screw that you removed in the previous
section.
Note that the external auxiliary I/O connectors on the cable adapter bracket are
panel mount connectors. If you don’t want to occupy an entire slot for the
additional bracket, you can punch out two holes in the computer chassis, and then
screw the connectors in the holes.
