Cable Management Arm
The SYS-212GB-NR server supports a cable management arm (CMA), which keeps the rear cables organized and clear of the rail mechanisms when the system is extended out the front of the rack for maintenance.
The CMA attaches to the rack mounting rails using four connectors. They are labeled as connectors 1, 2, 3, and 4.
