Verifying installation requirements
The installation takes less t han 10 minutes. Obtain the following items:
• Replacement Director blade
• Replacement filler panel for each empty slot (ships with the Director
blade)
• Electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap
• Workstation computer
• Phillips screwdriver
• Small form-factor pluggable (SFP) transceivers, as needed
• Extended form-factor pluggable (XFP) transceivers, as needed (for
the FC10-6 Director b lad e only)
• Optical cables, as needed
IMPORTANT:
Order SFP transceivers separately. The HP DC SAN Backbone
Director 8Gb port blades support HP transceivers labeled
“B-Series FC SFP" only. Check h
ttp://www.hp.com for more
information on supported transceivers.
Removing the filler panel
Remove the filler panel, if installed. There are three filler panel types
(Figure 10).

IMPORTA
NT:
Remove a filler panel only when installing or replacing a new
Director blade. Any slot that is not occupied by a Director blade
requires a filler panel to ensure correct cooling of the chassis
and protection from dust.
