5 Open the expansion-card latch and remove the filler bracket.
See Figure 3-11.

Keep this bracket in case you need to remove the expansion card.

FCC certification of the system. The brackets also keep dust and dirt out of the
system and aid in proper cooling and airflow inside the system.

connector aligns with the expansion-card connector on the expansion-card
riser.

until the card is fully seated.
