5.3.2 Replacing the Light Pipes
Light pipe replacement instructions are included as part of the instructions for replacing the EFP
board. To transfer the light pipe assembly from EFP board just removed, use the procedures that
follow.
To replace the light pipes on the existing EFP board when you are not installing a replacement EFP
board, you still need to follow the same procedures:
• “Removing the Ethernet Front Panel (EFP) Board”
• “Replacing the Light Pipes” (the steps below)
• “Installing the EFP Board”
1. Note the position of the light pipes so that you will be able to correctly position the assembly on
the EFP board during the re-installation process. The pipes extend outward from the EFP board to
the front panel control panel.
2. Remove the light pipe assembly by gently pressing the four plastic clips from the underside of the
EFP board until the bottom of the clips are flush with the bottom of the EFP board.
3. Gently ease the light pipes from the EFP board.
4. Insert the four plastic clips on the light pipe assembly or the replacement light pipes into the
matching holes in the new EFP board. Insert the clips gently and evenly—do not insert one clip
fully without first partially pressing the others into place.
5.3.3 Installing the EFP Board
1. Lower the replacement EFP board into the chassis.
2. While holding the rear edge of the board, ease the board forward, sliding the NIC connector
(NSW1U-F and NSW1U-B) and USB port through the matching cutout at the front panel of the
chassis.
3. Lower the rear of the board into position, fitting the board over the placement pegs. ( Figure 54 ,
“A”)
4. Push the board forward, locking the board onto the placement pegs. (“B”)
5. Replace the screws you removed previously. (“C”)
6. Reinstall the PCI fan assembly. For instructions see
Section 5.2.4, “Installing the PCI Fan” on
page 67 .
7. Reinstall the eUSB SSD if you are using it. For instructions see Section 4.7, “Installing a SMART
Embedded USB Solid-State Drive” on page 61 .
8. Reconnect all of the cables that were disconnected when removing the old EFP board:
• All fan power cables (3 CPU/memory fans and PCI fan)
• Flex cable
• Optical device power cable
• SATA hard drive connectors
• eUSB solid-state drive cable, if installed
• 4xGbE LAN card cables, if installed
• Power interconnect to PDB
9. If this is the last task you are performing, replace the top cover of the chassis. Reconnect all the
external devices and plug in the power cord(s).
