HP (Hewlett-Packard) DL380 Home Theater Server User Manual


 
Cable information
This section provides cabling information for installing the HP ProLiant DL380 G6 Carrier-Grade
Server.
NEBS chassis ground
This carrier-grade product is intended for use in both common bonding networks and isolated
bonding networks. The product is equipped with a NEBS-compliant chassis ground lug located on
the rear of the product.
The ground lug included with the product accepts wire gauges between 10 and 12 AWG.
Network cabling
Intra-building connections of the HP ProLiant DL-Series Carrier-Grade Servers require the use of
shielded cables grounded at both ends.
CAUTION: The intra-building ports of the equipment are suitable for connection to intra-building
or unexposed wiring or cabling only. The intra-building ports of the equipment must not be
metallically connected to interfaces that connect to the Outside Plant (OSP) or its wiring. These
interfaces are designed for use as intra-building interfaces only (Type 2 or Type 4 ports, as described
in GR-1089-CORE, Issue 4) and require isolation from the exposed OSP cabling. The addition of
primary protectors is not sufficient protection to connect these interfaces metallically to OSP wiring.
