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 PES16T4AG2 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
PES16T4AG2 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 PES16T4AG2 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.
