Card Installation 3-1
This chapter shows you how to install and remove main chassis and splitter chassis cards.
3.1 Installing a Main Chassis Card
Use the following procedure to install a management switch card or a DSL line card in the main chassis.
Install the line cards starting from the bottommost slot.
Install a management switch card in slot 1 on the IES-2500.
If using six VLC1124L cards, no management switch card is necessary.
Step 1.
Grasp the center of the front panel of the card with one hand and place the other hand under the card to
support it.
Step 2.
Insert the card halfway into the slot and spread the two ejector levers outward. Make sure the ejector
levers are perpendicular to the front panel.
Step 3.
Slide the card into the slot until it makes contact with the backplane. The ejector levers should be at a
small angle to the front panel now.
Step 4.
Push the two ejector levers firmly until they are flush with the front panel.
Step 5.
Tighten the two thumbscrews.
