2.3 Card Installation

This section shows you how to install and remove line cards.

Install management switch cards in slot 8 and/or 9 on the IES. You can use either slot if there is only one management switch card.

Install the line cards in the IES in the other slots.

Leave the slot covers on unused slots.

2.3.1Installing MSC and Line Cards

Use the following procedure to install management switch cards and line cards in the main chassis.

1Grasp the center of the front panel of the card with one hand and place the other hand under the card to support it.

2Insert the card halfway into the slot and spread the two ejector levers outward. Make sure the ejector levers are perpendicular to the front panel.

3Slide the card into the slot until it makes contact with the backplane. The ejector levers should be at a small angle to the front panel now.

4Push the two ejector levers firmly until they are flush with the front panel.
