Chapter 3 Removing and Installing the Clock Card
Clock Card Removal and Installation
Note
If the clock card installation screws do not appropriately assume a locked position, the clock card is not
completely seated in the midplane. Carefully pull the clock card halfway out of the slot, reinsert it, and
tighten the captive installation screws.
Caution
To prevent jamming the carrier between the upper and the lower edges of the clock card slot, and to
ensure that the edge connector at the rear of the clock card mates with the connection at the rear of the
clock card slot, make certain that the carrier is positioned correctly, as shown in the cutaway in the
following illustrations.
Warning
When performing the following procedures, wear a grounding wrist strap to avoid ESD damage to the
card. Some platforms have an ESD connector for attaching the wrist strap. Do not directly touch the
midplane or backplane with your hand or any metal tool, or you could shock yourself.
Warning
To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 26 AWG or larger telecommunication line cord.
