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.
2.3.1 Installing MSC and Line Cards
Use the following procedure to install management switch cards and line cards in
the main chassis.
1 Grasp the center of the front panel of the card with one hand and place the other
hand under the card to support it.
2 Insert the card halfway into the slot and spread the two ejector levers outward.
Make sure the ejector levers are perpendicular to the front panel.
3 Slide 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.
4 Push the two ejector levers firmly until they are flush with the front panel.
