Vertical cable management fingers removal and replacement

The Brocade DCX 8510-4 comes equipped with two vertical cable management finger assemblies. 
It can continue to operate during the replacement of the cable management fingers. Due to the 
horizontal orientation of the blades in the Brocade DCX 8510-4, the finger assemblies are attached 
to the uprights of the mounting rack. See 

 for this procedure.

Time and items required

The replacement procedure for the cable management fingers takes less than five minutes. A #1 
Phillips screwdriver is required.
