A third party I/O card installs in the second slot of the 2-slot backplane. The I/O card then appears to the host system as host of that system. Gen 2 products operate at 5Gb/s per lane, or twice the bandwidth of Gen 1 products. Therefore, PCIe x4 Gen 2 products operate at 20Gb/s when inserted in a x4 or higher slot. . OSS-KIT-EXP-1500 | 3...
