The PCIe x4 Gen 2 expansion kit is used to extend the PCI Express bus from a host server to an external PCIe I/O board. The host adapter card inserts into a PCIe slot of the server. It then cables to a downstream target adapter card. The target adapter card inserts in the OSS Gen 2, 2-slot backplane.
The Host adapter card inserts into any PCI Express x4, x8, 16 slot on the host motherboard. The Target adapter card operates ONLY in the OSS backplane target slot. Both Host and Target adapter cards have PWR and CBL LED indicators.

The PCIe x4 expansion kit contains two cable adapter boards, the host cable adapter and the target cable adapter. The host adapter inserts into the host computer’s PCIe x4, x8 or x16 slot. The host cable adapter (Part # OSS-PCIe-HIB25-x4-H) allows communication between a processor and an I/O point.

Plug in the add-in card or PCIe card in the available IO slot (Endpoint slot: also known as expansion slot and / or downstream slot), see photos below. Connect +12v 4-PIN Aux power cable from your ATX power supply to either J3, J5 or both J3 and J5, see photos below. OSS-KIT-EXP-3501-2M | 8...
If your ATX power supply does not have a separate +12V 4-pin connector, you can buy a P4-to-ATX Power Supply adapter, see photo below. This cable is not sold by OSS. You can buy this from any online electronics stores. Use the description “P4-to-ATX Power Supply adapter”...
In the following tables, a 0 indicates that a zero Ohm resistor has been installed and a 1 indicates no resistor. In rare cases, mostly where non- OSS equipment is used with the HIB-25x4, these adjustments may need to be changed. The following tables are made available for this purpose.
