Caution
To prevent jamming the carrier between the upper and lower edges of theport adapter slot
and to ensure that the edge connector at the rear of the port adapter mates with the connector at the
rear of the port adapter slot, make certain that the leading edges of the carrier are between the upper
and lower slot edges, as shown in the cutaway in Figure 4-5.
Caution To ensure a positive ground attachment between the port adapter carrier and the
Catalyst RSM/VIP2 motherboard and port adapter slot, and to ensure that the connectors at the rear
of the port adapter and slot mate properly, position the carrier between the upper and lower slot
edges, as shown in Figure 4-5.
Step 4 Carefully slide the new port adapter into the port adapter slot until the connector on the
port adapter is completely seated in the connector on the motherboard. (See Figure 4-5.)
