    							Mac Pro (8x) Upgrades — Bluetooth Card 161
    Bluetooth Card 
    Important: The computer enclosure includes one Bluetooth antenna wire, which looks similar to 
    the AirPort antenna wires, except that it includes a “BT” label. If the label is missing, you can also 
    identify the Bluetooth cable by its location; it is the cable that runs to the back of the computer.
    For proper operation, be careful not to connect the Bluetooth antenna wire to the AirPort card or 
    any AirPort antenna wire to the Bluetooth card. 
    Tools
    The only tool required for this procedure is a magnetized jewelers Phillips #1 screwdriver.
    Preliminary Steps
    Before you begin, open the computer, and lay it on its side with the access side facing up.

    Part Location
    Procedure
    This procedure explains how to install a standard card and a card that includes a booster cable. 
    Before you can install either type of card, however, you must first loosen the two captive screws 
    that secure the PCI bracket to the enclosure and remove the bracket. You must also remove the 
    port cover for the PCI slot where you are installing the new card.  
    						
    							Mac Pro (8x) Upgrades — PCI Express/Graphics Card 165
    Warning: When installing or removing a card, handle it only by the edges. Do not touch its 
    connectors or any of the components on the card. 
    Standard Card
    Align the card’s connector with the expansion slot and press until the connector is inserted 1. 
    all the way into the slot. If you’re installing a 12-inch card, make sure the card engages the 
    appropriate slot in the PCI card guide. 
    • Don’t rock the card from side to side; instead, press the card straight down into the slot.  
    • Don’t force the card. If you meet a lot of resistance, pull the card out. Check the connector 
    and the slot for damage or obstructions, then try inserting the card again. 
    • Pull the card gently to see if it is properly connected. If it resists and stays in place and its 
    gold connectors are barely visible, the card is connected. 
    Replace the PCI bracket and tighten the two screws that secure it to the enclosure.2.

    Card with Booster Cable
    Connect the booster cable to the card. 1. 
    Holding the card by the top corners, insert it straight down into its expansion slot. 2.  
    Connect the booster cable to the logic board. 3. 
    Note: There are two logic board connectors for booster cables. Connect the booster cable for 
    a card in PCI slot 1 to the connector that is closest to the heatsink cover. Connect the booster 
    cable for a card in PCI slot 2 to the connector closest to the media shelf.
