Figure A-5 Pci/Pci+/Pci-X I/O Assembly - Sun Microsystems Fire E6900 Systems Service Manual

When you remove the PCI I/O assembly to install components on it, you must
install an PCI I/O assembly filler panel, which covers the assembly slot and prevents
the system from overheating. The card slots in the PCI I/O assembly must have
either a card or a filler board installed in them.
When you install an I/O assembly into the system, you must install the PCI I/O
assembly in the bottom slots and the Sun Fire Link assembly in the top slots for
cooling purposes.
A.6.1 PCI/PCI+/PCI-X I/O Assembly
The I/O assembly has eight slots. Six slots accommodate full-length PCI I/O cards.
Two slots accommodate short PCI cards. You can install short PCI I/O cards in any
of the full-length PCI I/O slots as well.
