Figure 21 Mezzanine Port Locations on the System Board
1
Mezzanine port 1: PCIe x4 port
2
Mezzanine port 2: PCIe x8 port
3
Mezzanine port 3: PCIe x8 port
The install order for the mezzanine ports is:
1.
PCIe x4 card – Install into slot 1
2.
PCIe x8 card – Install into slot 2
3.
PCIe x8 card – Install into slot 3
If you are only installing PCIe x8 cards, start from mezzanine slot 2, not slot 1.
Mezzanine port 1 is lower than mezzanine ports 2 and 3 to enable the cards to be stacked on
top of each other.
Figure 22
shows the mezzanine port heights.
