unplug the power connecter.

Place the Quadro Sync board in a free slot, note the PCIe edge fingers may not
bottom out in the PCIe slot.
2.
Connect the Sync board and up to four Quadro boards with included ribbon cables.
On the Quadro board make sure to connect to the connector labeled
“SYNC | SDI”. There is no need to connect the Quadro boards to the connectors on
the Quadro Sync board in any particular order.
3.
Connect a 6-pin PCIe or SATA power connector.
4.
Optional: Place the included cable retention clips on both the Quadro Sync board
and Quadro board(s).
Note: When properly installed the PCIe finger on the Quadro Sync board may not
touch the bottom of the PCIe slot.
When using Quadro Sync in a system that supports NVIDIA SLI
®
an SLI bridge does not
need to be connected unless you are planning to use SLI specific features like SLI Frame
Rendering or SLI Anti-Aliasing. These SLI modes are not compatible with most of the
features of Sync.
