Figure 16 Mezzanine Port Locations on the System Board

1

Mezzanine port 1: PCIe x4 port

2

Mezzanine port 2: PCIe x8 port

3

Mezzanine port 3: PCIe x8 port

The install order for the mezzanine cards is:

1.

PCIe x4 card – Install into mezzanine port 1

2.

PCIe x8 card – Install into mezzanine port 2

3.

PCIe x8 card – Install into mezzanine port 3

If you are only loading PCIe x8 cards, install them into port 2, then port 3.

Mezzanine port 1 is lower than mezzanine ports 2 and 3 to allow the cards to be stacked on top
of each other.

Figure 17

shows the mezzanine port heights.
