*Depending on the server model, the server might ship with one or two riser cages installed.
**These slots can run 8 GT/s signaling rate in either PCIe2 or PCIe3 mode, depending on the capability of the installed
processor.
†PCIe slot 3 is connected to the southbridge and runs at the Gen2 signaling rate.
Notes:
"Primary" denotes the riser cage is installed in the primary riser connector.
"Secondary" denotes the riser cage is installed in the secondary riser connector.
Installing the riser cages listed in the table above in either the primary or secondary riser connectors determines the form
factor of the PCIe boards supported by those riser cages.
FL/FH denotes full-length, full-height. HL/FH denotes half-length, full-height. LP denotes low profile.
The PCIe 2-slot x16 riser cage supports a maximum power of 150 W with an HP power cable. This cable must be used
for PCIe board wattages greater than 75 W.
