Board Installation

Use the following steps to install the card in the openGearTM 8310 frame:

1. Refer to the Owner’s Manual of the openGearTM 8310 frame to ensure that the frame

 

 

is properly installed according to instructions.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Heat and power distribution requirements within a frame may dictate

 

 

 

specific slot placement of cards. Cards with many heat-producing

 

 

 

components should be arranged to avoid areas of excess heat build-up,

 

Warning

 

particularly in frames using convection cooling.

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. After selecting the desired frame installation slot, hold the card by the edges and

 

 

carefully align the card edges with the slots in the frame. Then, fully insert the card

 

 

into the frame until the rear connection plugs are properly seated on the midplane and

 

 

rear modules.

 

This completes the procedure for installing the card in the openGearTM 8310 frame.
