    Reason

    There is the potential for the Controller power cables (AC Adapter, DC Adapter, and Battery cables), HVAD Alarm Adapter, and HVAD Monitor data cables to cause damage to the HVAD Controller ports when inserting the cables into the Controller ports, due to wear from misalignment of the cables to the port.
