1. Read the safety information that begins on page vii and “Installation guidelines”
on page 35.
2. Turn off the server and peripheral devices, and disconnect the power cords and
all external cables. Remove the left-side cover (see “Removing the left-side
cover” on page 57 for more information).
3. See the documentation that comes with the adapter for any cabling instructions
and information about jumper or switch settings. (It might be easier for you to
route cables before you install the adapter.)
4. Rotate the adapter-retention brackets to the open position.
5. Remove the expansion-slot cover.
6. If you are installing a full-length adapter, remove the blue adapter guide (if any)
from the end of the adapter. Otherwise, continue with the next step.
