1. Remove and set aside the two screws securing the

Thunderbolt interface card to the inner assembly
(Figure A-1).

2. Gently push down on the edge of the card to disengage the

card from its slot

(Figure A-1).

3. Grasping the card by its bracket, rotate the bracket out of

the inner assembly, and then pull out the card

(Figure A-2).

Set aside the Thunderbolt interface card on flat surface,
component side down.

4. Insert the BNC connectors through the BNC connector

mounting holes in the inner assembly

(Figure A-3). Route

the cables out over the top of the PCIe slot riser card.

5. Slide the BNC connector nuts over the cables, and then

secure the connectors to the chassis

(Figure A-3).

6. Grasping the Thunderbolt interface card by its bracket, insert

the card back into the inner assembly

(Figure A-4).

7. Line up the card’s connector with the slot, and then gently

but firmly press the card straight into the slot;

do not rock

the card or force the card into the slot. If you encounter
excessive resistance, check the card’s connector and the
slot for damage, and then try inserting the card again
(Figure A-5).

8. Using the two screws you removed previously, secure the

Thunderbolt interface card to the inner assembly; do not
overtighten the screws

(Figure A-5).
