Installing Fabric Modules
The slots for fabric modules are numbered 1 through 4, from left to right. If you are installing only three
fabric modules, use slots 1 through 3.
Install all the fabric modules before you install I/O modules.
To install fabric modules:
1 Attach the ESD-preventive wrist strap to your bare wrist. If it is not already connected, connect the
metal end to the receptacle at the right of the power input connectors.
2 Remove the fan tray from each location where you will install a fabric module (Figure 28).
