Installing an I/O module
The BladeCenter HT unit has eight hot-swap I/O module bays that are compatible
with three types of I/O modules (see “Rear view” on page 16 for the location of the
I/O module bays). See the
Installation and User’s Guide for a description of the
types of modules that can be used in each bay.
Note: Before you install a new I/O module, read the documentation that comes
with the module for detailed instructions.
To install an I/O module or filler, complete the following steps.
1. Read the safety information that begins on page vii and “Installation guidelines”
on page 31.
2. Install the I/O-module interposer “Installing an I/O-module interposer” on page

3. Make sure that the I/O module release handle or handles are in the open
position.
4. Slide the module into the module bay until it stops.
5. Push the release handle or handles to the closed position.
6. Reconnect all cables to the module.
7. Install the bezel that was removed during the removal procedure (see “Installing
