Learn how to replace the front USB cable in the system.

1. Ensure that you have the electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap on and that the ESD clip is plugged into a ground jack or connected to an unpainted metal surface. If not, do so now.
2. Latch the USB cable socket into the USB holder. Ensure that the tab on the socket aligns with the holder. Pinch the tabs (A) as shown in Figure 1 and insert the socket into the opening until the tabs latch into position.

   

3. Insert the front USB cable into the opening on the front of the system. Replace the screws (A) as shown in Figure 2. Route the cable through the chassis and along the right side of the system chassis.

   

4. Plug the USB cable (A) into the connector on the system backplane as shown in Figure 3.
   The USB connector on the system backplane has the USB port symbol with an arrow pointing to the front of the system.

   

5. Route the cable along the top right side of the system, in the area of the handle for the system processor card and chassis bulkhead, and secure it to the hook and loop fasteners on the side of the system.
6. Replace the air baffles. For instructions, see Replacing the air baffle.
