Abstract

A data center includes a rack containing a first and second information handling system. A panel having a first opening and a second opening is coupled to a side of the rack. A cable guide is positioned adjacent to the panel. The cable guide encloses a cable passage extending there-through. A first cable extends through the cable passage, through the first opening and terminates in a first connection to the first information handling system. A second cable extends through the cable passage, through the second opening and terminates in a second connection to the second information handling system. The cable guide and the first opening provide a first separate routing path for the first cable to the first information handling system and the cable guide and the second opening provide a second separate routing path for the second cable to the second information handling system.
