PCI-Express Slot

The 6015TC-T/6015TC-10G includes two preinstalled riser cards designed speciﬁ- cally for use in the SC808T-780 1U rackmount chassis. These riser cards support two low-proﬁle PCI-Express x16 cards to ﬁt inside the chassis.

PCI Card Installation

The riser card has already been preinstalled into the serverboard. Perform the fol- lowing steps to add a PCI add-on card:

1.Remove the PCI slot shield on the chassis by releasing the locking tab.

2.Insert the add-on card into the riser card.

3.Secure the add-on card with the locking tab.
