NOTE
Any unoccupied module slot in the chassis should have a blank faceplate installed to ensure satisfactory
protection from EMI and to maintain adequate airflow through the chassis.

a Place the antistatic bag containing the module on a flat ESD surface that is clear of any debris.
b Break the quality seal, the ESD warning seal, and the Read Installation Note seal.
c Open the antistatic bag and firmly grasp the rail of the module.
d Pull the antistatic bag off while holding the rail of the module.
CAUTION
To prevent ESD damage, hold the module by the metal rail and front panel only. Never touch the components on
the PCB or pins on any of the connectors.
