I/O Module Mezzanine Card
Mezzanine Card Installation Guidelines
• The blade supports one SFF mezzanine card.
• The mezzanine card slot supports Fabric B or Fabric C, depending on the slot in the sleeve where the
blade is installed. This card must match the fabric type of the I/O modules installed in the
corresponding I/O module bays.
NOTE: For more information on I/O modules, see "Guidelines for Installing I/O Modules" in the
M1000e Enclosure Owner's Manual at support.dell.com/manuals.
