Remove the screw that secures the port adapter (or blank port adapter).

Step 8
If you removed a port adapter, place it in an antistatic container for safe storage or
shipment back to the factory. If you removed a blank port adapter, no special handling is
required; however, store the blank port adapter for potential future use.
This completes the procedure for removing a port adapter from a Catalyst RSM/VIP2.
