Routing the GPIO cable
To route the GPIO cable:
1. From the front of the jukebox, locate the lower horizontal slot for the ribbon cables on the
left side of the jukebox (see Figure 12).
2. Locate the end of the 50-pin GPIO cable labeled “Interposer” and position it with the label
to your left and facing up.
3. Starting from inside the jukebox, thread the “Interposer” end of the 50-pin GPIO cable out
through the lower horizontal slot. Pull it through until the fold labeled “this side up” is just
inside the jukebox, to the right of the lower horizontal slot.
4. Leave the cable now extending from the left side of the jukebox laying flat on top of the
68-pin SCSI cable.
Note: The “This side up” label should be facing up. If it is not, remove the cable and route it again.
5. Route the other end of the GPIO cable through the empty drive bay at the bottom of the
frame and along the frame floor to the controller board location.
Routing the single-ended SCSI cable
To route the single-ended SCSI cable:
1. From the front of the jukebox, locate the lower horizontal slot for the ribbon cables on the
left side of the jukebox (see Figure 12).
2. Locate the end of the 50-pin single-ended SCSI cable labeled “Interposer” and position it
with that label to your left and facing up.
3. Starting from inside the jukebox, thread the “Interposer” end of the 50-pin single-ended
SCSI cable (facing out) out through the lower horizontal slot. Pull it through until the fold
labeled “this side up” is just inside the jukebox, to the right of the lower horizontal slot.
4. Leave the cable now extending from the left side of the jukebox laying flat on top of the
50-pin GPIO cable.
5. Route the other end of the cable through the empty drive bay at the bottom of the frame
and along the frame floor toward the back of the frame.
