Replacing the P1 and P2 interfaces

Note:
  • When upgrading only the P1/P2 interfaces, the 10GbE card will replace the existing 1Gb card in slot 2 of riser 2.
  • When upgrading both the P1/P2 and E1/E2 interfaces, one 10GbE card will replace the existing 1Gb card in slot 2 of riser 2 and the second 10GbE card will be installed in slot 1 of riser 2.

Steps

  1. Open the metal tab on the side.
  2. Slide out the existing PCI-E card and store it safely. Note that this specific card model is what must be replaced if switching the ports back to 1GbE copper interfaces.
  3. Insert the new dual-port 10GbE fiber card into its place and close the tab.
