How to Install or Remove a Switch Fabric Card
The switch fabric card is used only in single-chassis systems. The switch fabric card does not contain
any fiber-optic connectors because it is not connected to any other switch fabric modules (see
Figure 4-17).

Prerequisites
Before performing this task, remove any front cover plates from the chassis, and remove any switch
fabric card or switch fabric impedance cover from the slot in which you plan on installing the switch
fabric card. See the “Information About Impedance Carriers and Slot Covers” section on page 4-6 and
the “Removing a Switch Fabric Card” section on page 4-26.
Caution Removing more than one switch fabric card at a time can misalign the chassis and may damage the card
or chassis when reinserting the cards. Remove and reinsert only one card at a time.
