The ATM multi-rate line card has two option slots available for Physical Layer (PHY) interface cards. One PHY card
can be installed into each available slot. You will need a #2 Phillips-head screwdriver to perform this procedure.

Use the #2 Phillips-head screwdriver to loosen the two captive screws that hold the option slot cover
plate in place.
2.
Save the option slot cover plate.
3.
Insert the PHY card through the opening of the slot, and align the sides of the PHY card with the
guides in the option slot.
4.
Push the PHY card through the front of the line card until the 96-pin connector is firmly seated in
the connector at the back of the option slot.
5.
Fasten the PHY card to the front of the ATM line card with the two captive screws. Torque to 5 in-lb
(0.56 N-m).
