9. PCIe* Riser Card Support

The system includes two riser card slots on the server board. Available riser cards can be used in either slot.

This section will provide an overview of each available riser card and describe the server board features and

architecture supporting them.

The server board provides three riser card slots identified as: Riser Slot #1, Riser Slot #2, and Riser Slot #3. In

a 1U system, only Riser Slot #1 and Riser Slot #2 can be used. Riser Slot #3 is for 2U system use only.

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.

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: Riser Slot #2 can only be used in dual processor configurations.

The system supports two single slot PCIe* x16 (x16 lanes, x16 slot) riser cards. Each riser card is mounted to

a bracket assembly which is inserted into a riser card slot on the server board.
