Step 4 With the metal carrier aligned in the slot guides, gently slide the port adapter half way

into the slot.

Caution Do not slide the port adapter all the wayinto the slot until you have connected all required

cables. Trying to do so will disrupt normal operation of the router.

Step 5 With the port adapter half way in the slot, connect all required cables to the port adapter.

Step 6 After connecting the cables, carefully slide the port adapter all the way into the slot until

you feel the port adapter’s connectors seat in the midplane.

Step 7 Movethe port adapter lever to the locked position. Figure 5-5 shows the port adapter lever

in the locked position.

Note If the port adapter lever does not move to the locked position, the port adapter is

not completely seated in the midplane. Carefully pull the port adapter half wayout of theslot, reinsert it, and move the port adapter lever to the locked position.
