Attach the low-profile bracket to the expander card. The low-profile bracket is installed on the back
side of the expander, with the mounting screws inserted from the front, as shown the Figure 6.
Insert the screws through the holes on the front of the expander, then fasten the screws to the
bracket with a Phillips screw driver.
Caution:
The mount points on the low-profile bracket have a smooth or flat side and a raised side that
looks like a spacer (see Figure 6). Be sure to install the bracket with the flat side against the expander card
and the raised side facing away from the expander card.

The torque on the mounting screws should be a maximum of 3.0-4.0 lbf-in to avoid
deformation. Be sure that the expander is not bent after attaching the low-profile bracket to the
