How to Install or Remove an MSC
Figure 4-24
Installing an MSC
Step 1
Attach the ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and connect its leash to an ESD connection socket
on the rear (MSC) side or a bare metal surface on the chassis.
Step 2
Choose an available MSC slot for the MSC.
Caution
To prevent ESD damage, handle an MSC by its ejector levers or the MSC carrier edges only.
Do not touch any of the electrical components, pins, or circuitry.
Step 3
Remove the MSC impedance carrier from the slot you need to fill and set it aside.
Note
Remove only one impedance carrier and install one MSC at a time. Be sure to verify that each
MSC is fully installed and secured before installing another card.
Step 4
Remove the MSC you are installing from its antistatic packaging.
