Step 7 If you removed a port adapter, place it in an antistatic container for safe storage or shipment back to the factory. If you removed a blank port adapter, no special handling is required; however, store the blank port adapter for potential future use.

Step 8 Remove the new port adapter from its antistatic container and position it at the opening of the slot. (See Figure 11.)

Step 9 Carefully align the port adapter carrier between the upper and lower edges of the port adapter slot, as shown in Figure 11.

Upper edge

Lower edge

Caution To prevent jamming the carrier between the upper and lower edges of the port adapter slot and to ensure that the edge connector at the rear of the port adapter seats in the connector at the rear of the port adapter slot, make certain that the leading edges of the carrier are between the upper and lower slot edges, as shown in the cutaway in Figure 11.
