OSS-KIT-EXP-61611-XM | 7
1 Introduction
The PCIe x16 Gen 4 expansion kit connects a server to an OSS Expansion Backplane.
It is composed of a “Gen4 Mini-HD SFF-8644 PCIe cable (SKU# OSS-mSAS-CBL-x4-C-XM)” and two “PCIe x16 Gen 4 Cable Adapter (SKU: OSS-
PCIe-HIB616-x16)”.
The PCIe x16 Gen 4 host cable adapter plugs into a server and cables to a PCIe x16 Gen 4 switch-based target cable adapter. The expansion kit
connects with up to (4) x4, 1 meter SFF-8644 PCIe Gen 4 compliant cables.
