No problems installing or removing the carrier's cover.

Not a single cable failure using EZ crimp connectors.

You put the carrier cover on?!!! I think in the 16 years ive been doing this I've seen 1 cover actually on a partner system and 1 that was practically melted to the top of the cards on another but the system was still plugging away
