3. Insert the remaining ribbon cable connector into the ribbon cable jack
on the MIM.

2.3.2 Installing a BRIM-F6 into a Hub
To install a BRIM-F6 into a stand-alone hub that supports BRIM
technology (e.g., MicroMMAC):
1. Power-down your hub.
2. Disconnect all cables from the hub. Note the port-to-cable
connections.
3. Remove the chassis cover.
Note:
Refer to specific hub documentation for instructions on removing the
hub chassis cover.
4. Remove the BRIM coverplate/faceplate screws.
Note:
The BRIM-F6 requires an additional 24 pin ribbon connection.
Hubs that support BRIM technology only provide one BRIM slot that
supports this connection. Make sure you install the BRIM-F6 in the BRIM
slot with the ribbon cable jack.
5. Remove BRIM standoff screws.
6. Remove the BRIM coverplate.
7. Place your BRIM behind the hub faceplate. (See Figure 2-3.)
8. Insert the connector pins of the BRIM-F6 into the motherboard
connector in the hub.
