About this task
Read Installation Guidelines and Safety inspection checklist to ensure that you work safely.
Power off the server and peripheral devices and disconnect the power cords and all external cables. See Power off the server.
Keep static-sensitive parts in their static-protective packages until installation to prevent exposure to static electricity. Handle the parts with an electrostatic-discharge wrist strap or other grounding systems. Place the parts on a static-protective surface.
Procedure
Ensure that the Ethernet adapter is fully seated, and the thumbscrew is securely tightened. Otherwise, the OCP module will not get full connection and may not function.
Push the OCP module by its handle on the left until it is fully inserted into the connector on the front OCP interposer card.
Fully tighten the thumbscrew to secure the adapter. Use a screwdriver if needed.
