boards. The riser card assembly can hole up to two PCI boards.
Insert PCI boards for network extension and file device function extension into PCI
board slots in each riser card.

The PCI board is sensitive to static electricity. Make sure to
touch the metal frame of the server to discharge static elec-
tricity from your body before handling the PCI board. Do not
touch the PCI board terminals or on-board parts by a bare
hand or place the PCI board directly on the desk. See
“Static
Precautions” on page 157 .

Some restrictions are imposed on the combination of PCI
boards which can be installed in the server. Contact your
sales agent for details.

A riser card is designed for installing only low-profile PCI
boards or full-height PCI boards. Before installing a PCI
