After you unpack the switch blade, slide it into one of the open I/O module
slots in the back of a PowerEdge M1000e.
The M1000e is a 10U rack-mountable blade chassis that holds:
• Server blades: Eight full-height or 16 half-height, or 32 quarter-height
blades

controllers
Server blades are installed in the front of the chassis (Figure 1-7); switch
