Installing PCI Add-On Cards
Each node in the 6048R-DE2CR24L can accommodate up to three PCI-E 3.0 x8
add-on cards.
Installing an Add-on Card (Figure 5-4)
1. Begin by removing the node you wish to populate with add-on cards.
2. Locate the riser card and fully seat the cards into the slots in the riser,
pushing down with your thumbs evenly on both sides of the card.
3. If standard size cards are used, only passive heatsinks may be used for the
processors as the card size will interfere with active type heatsinks.
