Installing and removing an interface
card
This section takes the LSW1XGT4P0 interface card and the H3C
S5820X-28C switch to illustrate the installation and removal procedures.
The methods for installing and removing the LSW1XGT2P0 are similar.
The following tools are needed for installation and removal:
•
Phillips screwdriver
•
ESD-preventive wrist strap
NOTE:
The installation tools are not shipped together with H3C's Ethernet
switches. Prepare them yourself.
When you install or remove an interface card, follow these guidelines:
•
Avoid touching the surface-mounted components directly with your
hands.
•
Avoid using excessive force in the operation.
•
If you remove an interface card and do not install a new one, install a
filler panel as soon as possible to prevent dust and ensure the normal
ventilation in the switch.
