Installing and Removing the I/O Expansion
Module
Installing the I/O Expansion Module
1. Remove the PCI riser assembly. For instructions, see “Removing the PCIe* Riser
Assembly”.
2. Remove the processor air duct. For instructions, see “Removing the Processor Air
Duct”.
3. Squeeze the sides of the I/O expansion module filler panel(s) to disengage it from
the server system back panel and remove it (see letter “A” in Figure 53).
Note: If you are installing an I/O expansion module that uses only one slot, remove the filler
panel only from the slot shown so that the module can be attached to I/O connector 1. Do
not remove the filler panel from the second slot.
4. Attach the standoffs to the server board by pressing into the holes (see letter “B” in
Figure 53).
Note: For the 1-socket expansion module, install the three standoffs as shown in gray. For the 2-
socket expansion module, also install the fourth standoff as shown in red.
5. Position the I/O expansion module over the server board I/O Expansion Module
connector (J3C1) as shown in Figure 53.
6. First fit the front of the module into the back panel slot(s), and then attach the
module to the server board connector and engage the standoffs (see letter “C” in
Figure 53).
