In general, it is not possible to predict the actual Bus numbers. We only know how they increment starting from the Magma Host Card.

The key point in the figure of the PCI Bus topology is that the connecting cable between the Host Interface Card and the backplane is actually a PCI bus itself. This is represented in the Windows Device Manager as shown below:

NOTE

All PCI cards installed in the PCI Expansion chassis will appear on the Third PCI Bus behind the PCI Bus that the Host Interface Card is installed on. If you need to know the actual Bus number, right-click on the Bus and select Properties.
