5.

Remove the metal cover opposite
the PCI-X slot that you want to
use, then install a PCI-X card as
shown. The card golden
connectors should match the
notches on the slot.

6.

Firmly push down the card until it
is completely seated on the slot.

7.

Secure the card bracket with a
screw.

8.

Connect power or signal cable(s)
to the card, if applicable.

Repeat steps 5 to 8 if you wish to install other PCI-X cards.

Install PCI-X cards in the following order:

First PCI-X card

– top slot (furthest from motherboard)

Second PCI-X card – middle slot
Third PCI-X card

– bottom slot (nearest the motherboard)

Exceptions:

1. Install a RAID card to the top slot to facilitate connection of SCSI

cables.

2. Install a LAN card to the bottom slot for easy connection of LAN

(RJ-45) cables from the chassis rear panel.

The PCI-X frequency depends on the number of cards installed on
the PCI cage. Refer to the table below for details.
