Step 1 Open the latches/ejectors of the first XCVT or XC10G card that you will install.

receptacle at the back of the slot (Slot 8 or 10).
Step 3 Verify that the card is inserted correctly and close the latches/ejectors on the card.
Note It is possible to close the latches/ejectors when the card is not completely plugged into the
backplane. Ensure that you cannot insert the card any further.
