* Default bus assignment (in Decimal format). Inserting cards with PCI bridges may alter the
actual bus assignment number
** Indicates the number of physical electrical lanes running to the connector
NOTE:
All slots are non-hot-plug Default bus assignment. Inserting cards with PCI bridges may
alter the actual bus assignment number. Slots are enumerated differently based on the operating
system. Microsoft operating systems enumerate from lowest to highest Device ID by bus (starting
with the lowest bus).

NOTE:
This optional IO backplane with 7 PCIe and 2 HTX slots replaces standard I/O backplane
with 11 PCIe slots.
NOTE:
VMware is not supported on DL785 G5 with backplane that has (2) HTx slots and (7) PCI-
Express slots.
