CHAPTER6 Hardware Maintenance
Mediant 1000 Gateway & E-SBC | Hardware Installation Manual
a. On the front panel, loosen the two captive screws securing the module to the chassis,
using your hand.
b. Grip the two captive screws and gently pull the module so that it completely slides out
of the chassis slot.
3. Install the module:
a. Gently and carefully insert the module into the slot, by sliding the module along the
slot's guiding rails and keeping the module lifted up towards the roof of the slot so that
the base of the module does not touch the floor of the slot (and damage the electrical
components located on the underside of the module). Slide the module into the slot
until it makes contact with the card-edge connector located on the backplane.
