1.4 System Boards
The complete system includes the use of several system boards which are used as internal
interconnects and provide feature accessibility. The following provides a brief description for
each.
• Bridge Board – PCB used to route signals from the server board to the mid-plane and
control panel boards.
• Mid-plane – A PCB used to determine the desired hard drive interface for the system.
Two mid-plane options are available for this system:
o Active SAS/SAS RAID – cable less solution with onboard SAS controller
o Passive SATA – cabled to SATA ports on the server board or from add-in
adapter.
• Backplane – Hot swap backplane capable of supporting both SATA and SAS hard
drives.
• Riser Cards – PCI riser cards used to provide up to five add-in card slots to the system.
Available riser card options for this system include:
o Low profile, two slot PCI Express*
o Full height, three slot PCI-X* (passive)
o Full height, three slot PCI-X (active) with onboard PXH PCI bridge chip
o Full height, two PCI Express slots + one PCI-X slot
