PCIe x16 cable connection in the Rack Mount 8 enclosure. Confirm that
the Cable Link LED (P0) lights green for each MIB inside the Rack
Mount 8 enclosure.

Xpander MIBs are functioning properly once

each Cable LED (P0) lights green. Proceed to the

next step to install adapters.

8. Switch off AC power to the host computer(s). Leave the power cords and the external PCIe

cables to the host computer(s) connected.
