Installing System Components

4 Remove the expansion NIC card from the expansion-card slot.

See "Replacing an Expansion NIC Card" on page 60.

5 Pull back slightly on the two tabs at the front edge of the card and gently

lift the front edge of the card off of the retention standoffs.
As the card releases from the standoffs, the connector under the card

disengages from the system board connector.

6 Slide the card away from the back of the system until the RJ-45 connector

is clear of the back panel.
Lift the card out of the system.

7 Angle the new card so that the RJ-45 connector fits through the back-panel

opening. See Figure 2-12.

8 Align the front edge of the card with the two front plastic retention

standoffs next to the iDRAC6 connector on the system board, and lower

the card into place. See Figure 2-12.
When the front of the card is fully seated, the plastic standoffs snap over

the edge of the card.
