from the top of the plate to anchor your board and cable adapter brackets once
they are installed.

connectors of your board with the opening at the back of the slot, and move the

with a retainer. You should avoid touching the latch of this retainer with the board.
Alternatively, you can remove the latch from the retainer.
5. Once the input connectors are in the opening of the chassis, press the board firmly
but carefully straight down into the connector of the slot.
