Mezzanine Card

The CPU blade can contain two mezzanine cards for blade which allows a network extension or a
file device feature extension. To install a mezzanine card, use the mezzanine card slot installed on
the CPU blade. The mezzanine card slot is factory-installed on the CPU blade.

The mezzanine card is extremely sensitive to static electricity. Make
sure to touch the metal frame of the server to discharge static
electricity from your body before handling the mezzanine card. Do
not touch the terminals and parts on the mezzanine card by a bare
hand and place the cards directly on the desk. For static notes, see
the section "Anti-static Measures" described earlier.
A combination of boards can be installed in the Blade Enclosure
