2. Remove the filler bracket and install
Optimod 1101E or 1211E.
Note: Keep this bracket in case you need to remove the
expansion card. Filler brackets must be installed over empty
expansion card slots to maintain FCC certification.
The brackets also keep dust and dirt out of the system and
aid in proper cooling and airflow inside the OptiEXP.
3. Ensure that the card is fully seated in the slot and all cards
are flush with the alignment bar.
The x8 PCIe Expansion Host Card MUST be installed in a x8 or x16 compliant PCIe slot in the host computer.
Not all physical x8 or x16 PCIe slots are electrical x8 or x16. Some are only x4 electrical. Refer to the host system documentation for these details.
