  • Patent number: 8891233
    Abstract: A cable management module having of a first module capable of connecting to a hard disk drive drawer; a second module releasably connected to the first module. A plurality of pairs of connecting arms connect the first module to the second module with each of the pairs of connecting arms being pivotally joined to each other at an intermediate point. A catch member is located on at least one side of the first module and a locking release mechanism is attached to the second module and to a locking member capable of engaging the catch member. A method for accessing a hard disk drive without disconnecting input/output cables and a method of replacing the input/output cables is also disclosed.
