Before you begin, print all the related instructions or ensure that you can view the PDF version on another
computer for reference.

Notes:

• Use any documentation that comes with the Ethernet card and follow those instructions in addition to

the instructions in this topic.

• Depending on the specific type, the Ethernet card might look different from the illustration in this topic.

To remove the Ethernet card, do the following:

1. Remove all media from the drives and turn off all attached devices and the server. Then, disconnect all

power cords from electrical outlets and disconnect all cables that are connected to the server.

2. If the server is installed in a rack cabinet, remove the server from the rack cabinet and place it on a flat,

clean, and static-protective surface. See the

Rack Installation Instructions

that comes with the server.

3. Remove the server cover. See “Removing the server cover” on page 71.

4. Remove the riser card assembly 1 and lay it upside down on a flat, clean, and static-protective surface.

See “Replacing the riser card assembly 1” on page 145.

Note:

Usually an Ethernet card is installed on the riser card assembly 1 and also can be installed in

any PCI Express card slot that supports it. See “Rear view of the server” on page 21 to identify the
PCI Express card slots of your server.

5. Locate the Ethernet card on the riser card assembly 1. Depending on the type of the Ethernet card, you

might need to disconnect all cables from the Ethernet card. Then, grasp the Ethernet card by its edges
and carefully pull it out of the riser card assembly 1.

Note:

The Ethernet card might fit tightly into the PCI Express card slot. If necessary, alternate moving

each side of the Ethernet card a small and equal amount until it is completely removed from the slot.

Figure 41. Removing the Ethernet card

6. Install a new Ethernet card to replace the old one or install a PCI Express card slot bracket to cover the

place. See “Installing the Ethernet card” on page 83.

7. Reinstall the riser card assembly 1. See “Replacing the riser card assembly 1” on page 145.

8. If you are instructed to return the old Ethernet card, follow all packaging instructions and use any

packaging materials that are supplied to you for shipping.

What to do next:

• To work with another piece of hardware, go to the appropriate section.
