Installing a non-hot-plug adapter
This section contains the procedure for installing a non-hot-plug adapter. If you
want to remove a non-hot-plug adapter, reverse the steps.
Before you begin:
Read “Electrical safety” on page 42 and “Handling static-sensitive devices”
on page 44.
Read the documentation that comes with your option.
Refer to the illustrations in “Installing a hot-plug PCI adapter” on page 56 while you
perform the steps in this procedure.
To install a non-hot-plug adapter:
1. Turn off the server and peripheral devices and disconnect all external cables
and power cords (see “Preparing to install options” on page 46); then, remove
the cover. See “Removing the left-side cover (tower model)” on page 48 or
“Removing the cover (rack model)” on page 49.
2. Determine which PCI adapter expansion slot you will use for the adapter.
Note: Check the instructions that come with the adapter for any requirements
or restrictions.
3. Remove the expansion-slot cover
1
:
a. Rotate the adapter retention latch

counterclockwise.
b. Remove the expansion-slot cover from the server. Store it in a safe place
for future use.
Attention: Expansion-slot covers must be installed on all vacant slots. This
maintains the electromagnetic emissions characteristics of the system and
ensures proper cooling of system components.
4. Refer to the documentation that comes with your adapter for any cabling
instructions. It might be easier for you to route any cables before you install
the adapter.
5. Press on the touchpoint on the adapter retainer flap
4
at the end of the slot
nearest the front of the server and rotate the adapter retainer flap upward.
6. Remove the adapter from the static-protective package.
Attention: Avoid touching the components and gold-edge connectors on the
adapter.
7. Place the adapter, component-side up, on a flat, static-protective surface.
8. Set any jumpers or switches as described by the adapter manufacturer.
9. Install the adapter
8
:
a. Carefully grasp the adapter
8
by its top edge or upper corners, and align
it with the expansion slot on the system board.
b. Press the adapter firmly into the expansion slot.
Attention: When you install an adapter in the server, be sure that it is
completely and correctly seated in the system-board connector before you
