Cabling an IBM PureFlex System Standard multichassis

Locate and identify the hardware components, cable part numbers, power distribution unit (PDU) part number, and port-to-port cabling sequence in an IBM® PureFlex™ System Standard multichassis configuration.

The following indexed diagrams help you map a hardware component to its position on the unit and understand port-to-port cabling sequence between the components in an IBM PureFlex System Standard multichassis configuration. Use these diagrams with the following tables.
Note: To locate and identify the hardware components, types of ports, and port numbers in an IBM PureFlex System Standard, see Identifying hardware components in an IBM PureFlex System Standard.
