3.8 PCI Boxes
A QBB supports up to two PCI boxes. A cable connects the QBB “local”
I/O riser to the “remote” I/O riser in the PCI box. There are two I/O
ports on a local I/O riser. Each I/O port is used to connect to one
remote I/O riser. Figure 3–10 shows QBB0 connected to PCI box 0 and
PCI box 1.
