Installation Steps

1 Installing the I/O Shield

The desktop board comes with an I/O shield. When installed in the chassis, the
shield blocks radio frequency transmissions, necessary to pass emissions (EMI)
certification testing, protects internal components from dust and foreign objects,
and promotes correct airflow within the chassis.
Install the I/O shield before installing the desktop board in the chassis. Place the
shield inside the chassis as shown in the following figure. Press the shield into
place so that it fits tightly and securely. If the shield doesn't fit, obtain a
properly-sized shield from the chassis supplier.
