Hot-Plug and Hot-Swap
Hot-Plug
As illustrated in Figures 7.1 through 7.3, a PCIe switch may be used in one of three hot-plug configura-
tions. Figure 7.1 illustrates the use of the PES12T3G2 in an application in which two downstream ports are
connected to slots into which add-in cards may be hot-plugged. Figure 7.2 illustrates the use of the
PES12T3G2 in an add-in card application. Here the downstream ports are hardwired to devices on the add-
in card and the upstream port serves as the add-in card’s PCIe interface. In this application the upstream
port may be hot-plugged into a slot on the main system. Finally, Figure 7.3 illustrates the use of the
PES12T3G2 in a carrier card application. In this application, the downstream ports are connected to slots
which may be hot-plugged and the entire assembly may be hot-plugged into a slot on the main system.
Since this application requires nothing more than the functionality illustrated in both Figures 7.1 through 7.2,
it will not be discussed further.
