Installation
Step 1 - Unpack board
The IBP-G4X16-2 is shipped in an anti-static bag to prevent static electricity damage. The card should only be removed from the
bag after ensuring that anti-static precautions are taken. Static electricity from your clothes or work environment can
damage your PCI Express adapter card or your PC. Always wear a grounded anti-static wrist strap while opening the
expansion chassis and when the IBP-G4X16-2 is removed from the anti-static bag.
Unpack the IBP-G4X16-2 from the anti-static bag using proper anti-static procedures.
Step 2 – Install the IBP-G4X16-2 in an cabinet
The backplane can be installed in a ATX or MicroATX compliant Chassis with proper airflow to meet the requirements of
both the Dolphin uplink card and the installed IO card.
Step 3 – Connect the Power Supply
The backplane must be powered from an ATX 24-Pin Power Supply. The power supply must provide enough power for
both the Dolphin uplink card and the PCIe adapter card installed.
Step 4 – Install the Dolphin PCIe uplink card
Configure and Install the Dolphin PCIe uplink card in one of the slots. Please refer to the Users Guide for the selected PCIe
card. The guides can be found at
Step 5 – Connect a power toggle switch or jumper
Connect a power toggle switch or a jumper to the 'PWR ON' pin headers. This connects to the ATX power-supply Power-
good pins and signals the PSU unit to start and provide power. With a toggle switch, the ATX PSU can be left switched on,
and power to the device can be controlled with this switch, while with a jumper, the expansion system can be turned on
or off with the ATX PSU power switch.
