Installing an adapter Installation overview This section describes installation precautions, how to install the adapter, and how to connect the network cable. WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, consult the safety information and user documentation provided with the server before attempting the installation.
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. Power down the server. 2. Remove the power cord and server access panel. Then remove the cover bracket from a PCI Express slot.
2. Using a correctly sized Phillips head screwdriver, carefully remove the two board lock screws located at the top and bottom of the connector. 3. Remove the standard profile bracket and place the low profile bracket over the connector. Be careful not to damage the connector or bend the low profile bracket. 4. Reinstall the two Phillips screws. 5.
