Figure 2–3 DXH510 Adapter Card
Caution:
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. Be sure that you are
properly grounded prior to any hardware installation procedure using an ESD
protection device such as a wrist strap.
If you are installing the DXH510 in a low-profile system and need to use the half-height
bracket, please refer to the Section 2.2.1.
1. Locate the serial number on the back of your DXH510 and record it for future refer-
ence.
2. Power off the server and disconnect the power cable.
3. Remove the server's access panel. Locate an available PCIe slot.
– Consult your server's documentation for details on removing the panel and
identifying PCIe slots.
Note: Your DXH510 is designed for use in a x8 PCIe slot. It will work in a x16 slot, but this
does not improve performance. Your DXH510 can also work in a x2 or x4 slot but
performance may be diminished in a x2 slot, or in a x4 slot if a x8 connection is
intended.
4. Follow server manufacturer’s instructions for installing PCIe add-in cards.
5. Replace the server’s access panel
6. Plug in the server’s power cable
