Take 4 Mystery Clips

[CapnStatic]

Hello all,

I'm finishing up a new build with an Antec Take 4 rackmount case, and everything came together really well. I'm looking to do a bit of cable management, and am presented with these "mystery clips" that came with the case. No manual is provided with these cases anymore, so I'm trying to guess how they might work. There are three long ones and two short ones, and two different size screws. They seem to fit on the stabilizer bar. I guess you can use the screw to crunch down on the cable a bit? Any insight would be appreciated.

wow they are expensive cases! I can't work those clips out though.

I got a deal on one. This is a recording application where rackmount was a hard requirement. All in all, it's a pretty stout case. I'd prefer case fans with motherboard connections instead of the little manually adjusted sliders, though. Still those clips, never seen anything like them before.

Bump. I opened a ticket with Antec customer support. Hopefully some answers will start rolling in soon.

Hi CapnStatic,

The mystery clip that you are referring to is actually used to hold any long expansion cards that you have in place. If you look at the tip of the mystery clip, you should see a small notch. Once a long expansion card is installed, you can push the mystery clip down on it and the expansion card will be held in place by that notch at the end.

Thanks
Eric
