3

Insert a push rivet into the rivet hole on the blue hook-and-loop

fastener. The head of the rivet should be on the same side of the

fastener as the plastic loop.

4

Firmly press the push rivet through the hole in the 9U Library

Expansion Module described above. The hook-and-loop fastener

should now be secured to the library chassis.

5

Plug the one end of the Ethernet cable into one of the four Ethernet

hub ports on the LCB.

6

Plug the other end of the Ethernet cable into the appropriate port on

the 9U Library Expansion Module.
If the FC I/O blade is installed in the module’s upper I/O blade bay,

plug the cable into the Ethernet port labeled

UPPER

. If the FC I/O

blade is installed in the module’s lower I/O blade bay, plug the cable

into the Ethernet port labeled

LOWER

.

7

Open the wire saddle nearest the LCB, place the Ethernet cable

inside, and snap the wire saddle shut.

8

Repeat for the other wire saddle.

9

If there is excess Ethernet cable, loop the excess cable into a bundle in

the shape of a figure-eight. The bundle should be small enough to

hold comfortably with one hand, or about six inches in length.

10

Wrap the bundle with the hook-and-loop fastener. Thread the strap

through the plastic loop and tighten the strap around the bundled

cable. Secure the strap by pressing it down.

The Ethernet cable is now secured to the 9U Library Expansion Module.

Repeat these steps to secure other Ethernet cables, if necessary.
Once complete, the Ethernet cabling for a an ML6030 Control Module

plus two PowerVault ML6000 9U Library Expansion Modules containing

four FC I/O blades should appear similar to

Figure 31

on page 243.

Note:

If your module chassis does not have the drilled hole, use

an M5 thumbscrew to attach the black hook-and-loop

fastener to the nearest available M5 threaded hole on the

lower right of any module chassis.
