Connecting the Cables
All cable ports on the base unit and other Intergraph Computer Systems equipment are keyed or
molded and labeled to ensure proper cable attachment. If a cable is not attaching easily, ensure
that you are aligning the cable connector correctly with the port.
The following figure shows the ports and connections on the back of the base unit. Refer to this
picture as needed when following the cable connection procedure.

WARNING
If you do not use cables from Intergraph Computer Systems, you must use
shielded cables to prevent excessive electromagnetic interference (EMI).
Intergraph Computer System cables are designed to reduce the amount of EMI
produced by the system.
NOTE
While Intergraph Computer Systems recommends disconnecting the cables from the
base unit before extending the base unit from the rack, you can still extend the base
unit without disconnecting the cables. Be sure there is enough cable to allow the
base unit to fully extend from the rack. Use caution not to pinch the cables while
extending or retracting the base unit.
NOTE
For information about RAID ports, refer to the documentation delivered with the
controller. For information about the Video Out port, refer to the documentation
delivered with the video card.
