Step 2. Carefully align the Ethernet Switch Blade in its assigned slot, and slide the blade approximately
half-way into the slot.
Step 3. Holding the two extraction levers in the fully extracted position (away from each other), carefully
slide the Blade into the slot until the backplane connectors properly mate with the 14-Slot Shelf
connectors and the blade is fully seated. A blade is fully seated when it touches the 14-Slot Shelf
case up to the extractors.
Step 4. Push the extraction levers toward each other until they are seated flat against the front panel in
order to complete the seating process, and secure the retention screws. The Ethernet Switch Blade
will not operate unless the extraction levers are fully latched.
Step 5. The blue hot-swap LED will be blinking or off. This completes the replacement procedure.
