Use this procedure to install the optional CMA.
Note - References to “left” or “right” in this procedure assume that you are facing the back of the equipment rack.

Note - Instructions for installing the server cables are provided in Back Panel Connectors and Ports.
Note - Cable hooks and loop straps are preinstalled on the CMA. Perform this step if you need to reinstall cable hooks and straps on the CMA.
For best results, place three cable straps, evenly spaced, on the rear-facing side of the CMA and three cable straps on the side of the CMA nearest the server.
