Cable Management Brackets
The Cisco CRS 4-slot line card chassis includes a cable management system that organizes the interface
cables entering and exiting the different cards, keeping them out of the way and free of sharp bends.
Caution
Excessive bending of interface cables can damage the cables.
The Cisco CRS 4-slot line card chassis arrives preinstalled with a horizontal cable management bracket
on the front of the chassis; this bracket cannot be removed or replaced.
Figure 4-3
shows the chassis cable management bracket.

sizes of slots in the chassis (see
