Refer to the manuals that are supplied with the server for details about performing these tasks on this particular server.
1. Review the “Safety Precautions” on page 15 and “Preinstallation Checklist” before installing the adapter. Ensure that the
system power is OFF and unplugged from the power outlet, and that proper electrical grounding procedures have been
followed.
2. Open the system case and select any empty PCI Express Gen 3 x8 or x16 slot.
3. Remove the blank cover-plate from the slot.
4. Align the adapter connector edge with the connector slot in the system.
5. Secure the adapter with the adapter clip or screw.
6. Close the system case and disconnect any personal antistatic devices.
5.4 Connecting the Network Cables
Broadcom Ethernet switches are productized with SFP+/SFP28/QSFP28 ports that support up to 100 Gb/s. These 100 Gb/
s ports can be divided into 4 x 25 Gb/s SFP28 ports. QSFP ports can be connected to SFP28 ports using 4 x 25G SFP28
breakout cables.
