The nonport side of the switch module (shown in Figure 2) is seated into the enclosure. You do not need to line up the switch module as it will seat correctly when the release lever is closed.

When the switch module is inserted, the midplane connectors activate a connection port, allowing the switch module to be configured in the Blade Server Enclosure.
