Install Fabric Interconnect F1-4 I/O Modules

1. Get the I/O module you will installing, and make sure that the I/O Module is in the unlocked position. Modules can be inserted into the Fabric Interconnect F1-4 only if they are in the unlocked position.

   Make sure that the I/O Module is oriented so that the sheet metal side is facing down and the module's faceplate is facing you.

2. Align the module with the slot.
3. Holding the module level, gently insert the I/O module into the chassis (1). See Installing a Fabric Interconnect F1-4 I/O Module.

   When the I/O Module is almost completely inserted, you will feel some resistance, which is the I/O Module's connector meeting its midplane socket. Continue to apply gentle pressure until the connector is seated in the socket.

4. When the module is completely inserted, it should lie flush with the face of the Fabric Interconnect F1-4.
5. Using a slotted screwdriver, lock the I/O Module into the chassis by turning the lock 90 degrees clockwise (2) as shown in Installing a Fabric Interconnect F1-4 I/O Module.
