5.7 I/O Expansion
5.7.1 PCIe Cards
PCIe cards provide ease of expandability and connection.
⚫
The electrical ports provided by PCIe NICs cannot be connected to power over Ethernet
(PoE) devices (such as a switch with PoE enabled). Connecting such an electrical port to
a PoE device may cause link communication failure or even damage the NIC.
⚫
Contact your local sales representative or use the
components to be used.
⚫
When IB cards are used to build an IB network, ensure that the IPoIB modes of the IB
cards at both ends of the network are the same. For details, contact technical support.
