shelf during normal operation. Follow these installation steps.

Procedure
1
It is easier to connect the front inlet fan tray holder power cable to the
Traverse backplane before installing the front inlet fan tray holder in the
rack. Grasp the power cable and bring it out the top of the front inlet fan
tray holder.
2
Bring the fan tray holder power cable with the 18-pin connector up to its
mating connector on the Traverse main backplane. Push up on the
connector until it locks into position. The tab on the connector locks it into
place.

Align the flange holes with the holes on the rack.
