Faceplate

Sangoma Telephony cards ship pre-installed with 1 U faceplate, along with a 2 U faceplate as accessory.

If you have a 2 U server, the 1 U faceplate will need to be removed to install the 2 U faceplate.
If this is your case, please view the following Demo which indicates which screws to remove and how to separate the card 

 

 

Telephony card installation is very simple:

  1. Power off server and remove cover to access the PCI/PCIexpress slots

  2. Identify the PCI/PCIexpress slot to be used for your telephony card

  3. Remove the backplate for that slot, from the server. 

    1. This backplate may require screwdriver to remove screws before pulling off the backplate. Use your discretion

  4. Insert the telephony card into the PCI/PCIexpress slot and verify it is firmly seated

  5. With the faceplate lines up with the mounting bracket, screw it firmware in place.

  6. Place server cover back on and power on
