HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Before handling the card it is important to minimize the potential effects of static electricity. It is
therefore recommended that an ESD strap be worn. Locate on the 7800 chassis two adjacent vacant
slots. Unpack the 7882DM2-LB4-CA2-ASI and separate the rear panel from the main card. Locate on
the rear of the rack an empty slot and remove the blanking panels. Insert the rear panel into the back of
the chassis and secure using the screws provided.
Before inserting the front card, connect the serial cable provided to the board. Now insert the 7882DM2-
LB4-CA2-ASI Series card into the corresponding front slots ensuring the card lines up with the slot
runners on the bottom and the top of the chassis. Push the card into the slot ensuring that when it
mates with the rear card that it has been firmly pushed into a seated position. This can be confirmed
when the connectivity lights for the Ethernet port are illuminated. Do not connect any cables to the rear
card until the initial configuration has been completed (failure to do this could cause unwanted network
issues).
