Installing an adapter in a server See the HP ProLiant server documentation for additional information on how to safely install a PCI Express card in the server. CAUTION: If the server is not PCI Hot Plug compliant, power it down and unplug the power cord from the power outlet before removing the server access panel. Failure to do so may damage the adapter or server. 1. 2. Power down the server. Remove the power cord and server access panel. Then remove the cover bracket from a PCI Express slot.
5. Orient the XFP module with the label side down and then reinstall the module all the way into its socket until it clicks into place and latches securely. Connecting the network cable The HP NC510F PCI Express Multifunction Gigabit Server Adapter uses an LC fiber port. This port supports multimode fiber with a maximum cable length dependent on the fiber type, mode, and cable size. See Cable specifications (on page 11) for the maximum cable length.
