3.6 PCIe* Accelerator Module Add-In Card Installation (D50DNP2MFALAC

Module)

The PCIe* accelerator module includes a special riser assembly that can support up to four x16 full height,

full length, double width PCIe* add-in cards for acceleration solutions. The PCIe* accelerator module riser

assembly is on the right side of the module.

Figure 76. Air-Cooled PCIe* Accelerator Module

The PCIe* accelerator module riser assembly houses two riser cards (shown in the following figures) where

each riser card supports up to two PCIe* accelerator add-in cards. Both riser cards come preinstalled in the

PCIe* accelerator module riser assembly. They are connected to the server board using MCIO* cables.
