Installing a Network Controller Card
This section outlines how to install an Network Controller Card in an openGear
frame. The same procedure applies regardless of the frame or card type. The
Network Controller Card installs in the last slot on the right side of the openGear
frame (when facing the frame).
CAUTION:
You must install the MFC-8322-S into an OG-3-FR or OG-X-FR frame.
Attempting to install this card in another frame type can damage your card.
To install a Network Controller Card
1. Power off the openGear frame.
2. Open the frame door.
3. If necessary, remove any cards from the frame that would interfere with
easy access and lines of sight.
4. Lift the lock before inserting the card into its slot. (Figure 2.1)

5. Insert the Network Controller Card, with the component side out into the
card guides between the dividing wall and the last slot, ensuring the card
does not touch the Card Retaining Screw.
