You can install the XL card in the upper PCI slot in the IDS-4250. The XL card accelerates the
performance of IDS-4250 up to 1 Gbps. You can use an MTRJ cable (part number

You can order this cable when you order the XL card.
For information about disconnecting the fiber ports the first time you boot IDS-4250 after upgrading
with the XL card, see
