Page 7: Introduction
The PCIe x4 Gen 2 cable adapter is a PCIe half-height add-in card with a PCIe x4 cable connector on the slot cover. The host cable adapter installs in the PCIe slot of a host server and the target cable adapter installs in the Target slot / Upstream slot of the OSS backplane. -
Page 8: Overview
Power is provided by the PCI-e card slot. Power required by internal components of OSS-PCIe-HIB-25-x4 is estimated to be 4 watts when both ports are fully linked and operating in Gen2 mode. Cable power is to be provided per PCIe cable specification. When an active cable (powered transceiver) is used, additional power is required from the PCI-e card slot. -

Mode 1: Target Mode: In this mode, the card is populated with three “Optocouplers”. The card is set to operate in Target mode and it is plugged into an OSS expansion backplane “Upstream slot”. Mode 2: Host Mode. In this mode, the card is not populated with “Optocouplers”. The card is set to operate in Host mode and it is plugged into computer’s motherboard PCIe slot. -

Page 18: Installation Procedures
Power down the host computer first before installing the host card. Do not install the host card while the computer is ON. Install the HIB25-x4 host card into the available PCIe slot in the computer’s motherboard. Use a x4, x8 or x16 Gen2 PCIe slot. Make sure to secure the card with a screw. OSS-PCIe-HIB25x4 | 18... -
Page 19: Install Hib Target Card
Do not plug in the target card while expansion unit or the expansion backplane is ON as this can damage the board. Turn OFF the unit first before installing the card. The HIB Target card will only work in the OSS backplane designated “Upstream” slot. It will not function in the downstream slot or the end-point slot of the backplane. -
Page 20: Install Pcie Card
One Stop Systems Install PCIe card Plug-in your 3rd party PCIe card in the expansion backplane. Use the downstream slot of the OSS backplane. See photos below. Install link cable Connect the PCIe iPass x4 cable between the host and target cards. Plug in the cable to the host card. -
Page 21: Connect Atx Power Supply
If you are using an expansion chassis, the power supply is already part of the unit. You can skip this step. If you are using an expansion backplane, plug-in the ATX power supply cable into the 24pin ATX power connector on the OSS board Connect power to the PSU and turn the switch to ON position. -

*Signal detect does not mean it has a link, but rather it identifies there is a signal on the card edge. If the link does not appear to be stable, it could mean that there is a compliance pattern being generated by the PCIe device interfacing with this card. OSS-PCIe-HIB25x4 | 22... -
