Step 6 If the ejector levers are locked in place, press the OIR buttons on the top and bottom of the card faceplate
to release the ejectors.
Step 7 Carefully slide the card into the slot until the ejector levers meet the edges of the card cage, and then
stop when the ejector lever hooks catch the card cage. If they do not catch, try reinserting the card until
the ejector lever hooks are fully latched.
Step 8 To seat the card in the midplane connector, grasp both card ejector levers and pivot them inward toward
the handle in the card carrier until they are flush against the front edge of the card carrier.
Tip For easier installation, install all FCs before securing any fasteners.
Step 9 Use the number-2 Phillips screwdriver or number-2 common (flat-head) screwdriver to turn the two
captive screws on the front panel of the card clockwise to seat the card firmly in the slot.
