What to do next
Reinsert an FHFL GPU. See
Installing a FHFL GPU, on page 29

Installing a FHFL GPU
Type A riser cages have two alignment pins for the single PCIe connector. The pair of pins catches a pair of
notches on the GPU bracket to correctly position the GPU.
Use the following procedure to install a full height full length GPU into a Type A riser.
Before you begin
Review the
GPU Replacement Guidelines and Limitations, on page 26
Step 1
Plug the black connector of GPU auxiliary (AUX) power cable into the FHFL GPU.
Step 2
Attach the GPU to the Type A riser.
a) Orient the GPU so that the notches on the GPU bracket line up with the pins on the riser cage.
You might need to open the riser door completely to have enough space to insert the FHFL GPU.
Note
b) Lower the FHFL GPU so that the front edge will slide into the lowest retaining bracket on the riser cage floor.
c) Align the GPU connector with its socket on the riser.
d) Gently slide the GPU along the floor of the riser, making sure that the bottom notch on the retaining bracket captures
the FHFL.
Make sure that the GPU power cable does not obstruct the GPU. Do not allow the cable to get pinched or
exceed a reasonable bend radius.
