Rotate the card and align it with the front of the appliance so that the Palo Alto Networks logo
is readable at the top of the card. Gently push the DPC into slot 3 until the card reaches the
end of the slot.

power from a DPC to a corresponding Networking Card (NC). When installing a DPC, you
must install it in the correct slot to pair with the NC.

the notches on the bottom of the slot. Rotate the blank panel upwards until it snaps at the top
of the slot.
