PCIe* Riser Card Support
The server board provides three riser card slots identified as: Riser Slot #1, Riser Slot #2, and Riser Slot #3.
Per the PCIe* specification, each riser card slot can support a maximum 75 W of power. The PCIe bus
interface for each riser card slot is supported by each of the two installed processors. The following tables
provide the PCIe bus routing for all supported risers cards.
Note
: The riser card slots are specifically designed to support riser cards only. Attempting to install a PCIe
add-in card directly into a riser card slot on the server board may damage the server board, the add-in card,
or both.
Note
: A dual processor configuration is required when using Riser Slot #2 and Riser Slot #3, as well as the
bottom add-in card slot for 2U riser cards installed in Riser Slot #1.
