To connect your LAN drop cable to a standard slide clip, follow these directions.
1. Before you connect your first LAN transceiver to the VLCi board in your
computer’s card cage, disconnect electrical power to the system. Refer to the
Ethernet/IEEE 802.3 Local Area Network Installation Guide if necessary.
2. Align the larger mount slot on the clip with the screw behind it as shown in
Figure 4–37. This position allows the cable connector to fit completely over the
VLCi connector before you secure the connection.
