sis. Use a screwdriver to make sure the card is properly
secured.
9 Inside Stage 48, locate the pre-installed 50-pin I/O card rib-
bon cable bundle.

making sure to not damage the ribbon cables. Remove the ca-
ble tie from Stage 48.
11 Use the following cables, depending on the slots you have
chosen to install cards into:
• For a card installed in the top slot of Stage 48, use the ca-
ble that is labeled in Figure 22 as “1.”

labeled in Figure 22 as “3.”
12 Connect the cable to the I/O card by making sure the plastic
key on the connector is aligned with the slot on the port. Se-
cure the connection by moving the retaining clips on each side
of the socket connector inward. Check to make sure the ribbon
cable is connected securely.
