Install an External Interconnect Assembly
Caution -
The small connector pins on the back of the assembly are susceptible to damage.
Align the assembly in the chassis, and install the assembly slowly to avoid bending or
otherwise damaging the connector pins. In addition, take care to avoid flexing or twisting these
assemblies.
2. Secure the external interconnect assembly by hand tightening the six captive
screws while ensuring that the screws install smoothly into the chassis.
Install the middle screws, then the top screws, and then the bottom screws by hand. Next, use a
T20 driver to hand tighten the screws, in the same order, until they are seated snugly.
Caution -
Do not overtighten the screws. The screws bear down on an internal feature to secure
the interconnect. The screw heads will appear to float when properly tightened. You can damage
the interconnect if you overtighten the screws.
