5-6 Adding PCI Cards

1.PCI slots

Your system should come with one or two riser cards to acommodate the use of one or two PCI expansion cards. The number and type of cards supported by each server system is shown below.

6014P-T: supports the use of one (each) standard size (full-height full-length) 100 MHz PCI-X add-on cards or two PCI-Express x8 add-on cards or a combination thereof.

6014P-TR: supports the use of one standard size (full-height full-length) 100 MHz PCI-X or one PCI-Express x8 add-on card.

6014P-T Riser Cards	Slot	Add-on Card
CSE-RR1U-XR (installed)	PCI-X (R)	PCI-X (100 MHz)
CSE-RR1U-X (installed)	PCI-X (L)	PCI-X (100 MHz)
CSE-RR1U-ER (boxed)	Univ. PCI (R)	PCI-Express x8
CSE-RR1U-EL (boxed)	Univ. PCI (L)	PCI-Express x8

6014P-TR Riser Cards	Slot	Add-on Card
CSE-RR1U-XR (installed)	PCI-X (R)	PCI-X (100 MHz)
CSE-RR1U-ER (boxed)	Univ. PCI (R)	PCI-Express x8

Notes: (L) refers to left and (R) refers to right-side slots when viewed from the front of the chassis. "Boxed" riser cards are included with the system (in the accessory box). A PCI-X slot and a PCI-E slot together constitute a Universal PCI slot. If both riser cards are to be used on the 6014P-T, you must install the right-side riser card (when viewed from front of the system) fi rst.

2.PCI card installation

Before installing a PCI add-on card, make sure you install it into the riser card and slot that supports the speed of the card (see step 1 above - you may need to change the installed riser card with a boxed one to support the type of add-on card you wish to install).

Begin by swinging out the release tab on the PCI slot shield that corresponds to the riser slot you wish to populate. Insert the PCI card into the correct riser slot, pushing down with your thumbs evenly on both sides of the card. Finish by pushing the release tab back to its original (locked) position. Follow this proce- dure when adding a card to the other slot (if applicable).
