Step 2:
Insert the connectors. Gently push the CPU card onto the connectors making
sure the CPU card edge connectors are securely inserted into the
corresponding backplane connectors.
5.9.2 Connecting the PCIe x8 Connector to the Backplane
If an IEI PICMG 1.3 server grade backplane is being used that supports more than 20
PCIe lanes, the PCIe x8 connector on the SPCIE-3600AM2 must be connected to the
corresponding connector on the backplane using an optional PCIe x8 board-to-board
connector. To do this, please follow the instructions below:
Step 1:
Install the CPU card onto a compatible backplane. Make sure the
SPCIE-3600AM2 is properly installed onto a compatible backplane. See the
previous section.
Step 2:
Connect the PCIe x8 connector to the backplane. Connect one side of the PCIe
x8 board-to-board connector to the PCIe x8 connector on the SPCIE-3600AM2
CPU card. Connect the other side of the PCIe x8 board-to-board connector to
the corresponding PCIe x8 connector on the backplane.
