The following sections explain the various I/O options that are possible with the different Fabric Extenders
(Cisco UCS 2208XP, 2204XP, and 2104XP) and the VIC 1240 and mezzanine adapters.

B200 M3 Configured with 1 CPU

In a B200 M3 configured with 1 CPU, the mezzanine card slot is not under the control of a CPU (in a B200 M3
configured with 2 CPUs, CPU 2 controls the slot). Therefore, the only adapter that can be placed in the
mezzanine slot in a B200 M3 configured with 1 CPU is the Cisco UCS Port Expander Card for VIC 1240, and
the VIC 1240 is always required to be installed in the VIC 1240 slot.
Connectivity using the Cisco UCS 2208XP Fabric Extender
The Cisco UCS 2208XP is the second-generation Fabric Extender, and shares the same form factor as the
current UCS 2100 series. The 2208XP is backwards compatible with the UCS 5108 Blade server chassis.

In Figure 10, two ports from the VIC 1240 are channeled to 2208XP Fabric Extender A and two are
channeled to 2208XP Fabric Extender B. The result is 20 Gbps of bandwidth to each Fabric Extender.
