Upgrading EQ8096 with Input and Output Option Cards
9.2.2 Installing an Output Card
The EQ8096 is fitted with individual blanking panels to slots (1-8). These must be
removed before the Output Card(s) can be fitted.
To install the 12QAM Output Card:
1. Remove the two screws securing the blanking panel from the slot; retain screws
and blanking panel for later use.
2. Remove the new 12QAM Output Cards from the ESD bag.
3. Check the three heat sinks are securely fixed to the underside of the board.
4. Ensure all the EMC fingers are pointing towards the board surfaces before
placing card into the runners on the chassis.

5. Push the card into the unit so the connector locates being careful that the heat
sinks or the EMC fingers do not foul on the entrance to the chassis. There is no
need to use the Card Extraction tools for this process.
