Installing the Rear I/O Filler Panel(s)
CAUTION
Be sure any empty expansion slot(s) have a filler panel installed as described
in the following “Installing the Rear I/O Filler Panel(s)” procedure. An open
expansion slot reduces the cooling and EMI integrity of the server and can
effect performance and/or cause damage due to overheating.
NOTE
Perform this procedure only if you are not immediately reinstalling another
add-in card in the same expansion slot from which an add-in card was
removed.
Perform this procedure to install rear I/O filler panels in any unused expansion slots. Refer to
Figure 23 while performing this procedure.
1. Align the filler panel retention bracket (A) with the two mating screw holes on top of the server
back panel.
2. Use a Phillips screwdriver and the two screws (B) removed in the previous “Removing the
Filler Panel Retention Bracket” procedure to securely attach the filler panel retention bracket to
the top edge of the server back panel.
