Installing an EM card
Follow the steps below to install an EM card. An EM card can be installed or removed even if the
blade enclosure is powered on. An example of installation is provided. Follow the same steps for
installation on another slot.
Make sure to follow the instructions and notes to use the blade enclosure and other
devices safely. There is a risk of death or serious injury. For more information, see
the descriptions on page 3.
Do not place your hands inside the blade enclosure.
Do not install or remove two or more EM cards at the same time.
1. When the slot where you wish to install an EM card has a slot cover, pull the release lever
located at the top to remove the slot cover.
Important
Keep the removed slot cover in a safe place.
2. Hold the left and right sides of the EM card with the release lever side facing up and slowly
insert it into the blade enclosure.
Important
Do not hold the release lever to install the EM card. If you hold the release lever, it may
be damaged.
3. Press the frame of the EM card front with your thumbs while the release lever is fully opened to
slowly insert the EM card into the end of the blade enclosure.

Push the front side of the EM card carefully until it is inserted into the end of the
blade enclosure and the release lever closes slightly.
