# Cable Installation

### Cable Installation

After you secure the T bracket to the terminal, you must insert the cables. This procedure explains how to install and secure the AC adapter and Ethernet cables; if you have additional cables, connect them to the appropriate port and use the same method to secure them in place.

#### To install and secure the cables:

1. Beginning with the AC adapter, inserting it in the terminal's cable guide on the left and connect the adapter to the **Power** port.

3. When the cables are properly seated in their ports, gently pull on the cables to remove any excess cable that is higher than the plane of the T bracket.

4. Place the 3-hole metal bracket over the cables, aligned with the screw holes in the T bracket and secure it in place using a Phillips head screwdriver to insert the two short screws.
