I/O Expansion Module Connector
The server board provides 2x internal 50-pin Intel
®
I/O Expansion Module style connector
(J2B1, J3B1) to accommodate proprietary form factor Intel
®
I/O Expansion Modules, which
expand the I/O capabilities of the server board without sacrificing an add-in slot from the riser
cards. There are multiple Intel
®
I/O Expansion Modules for use on this server board. For more
information on the supported Intel
®
I/O Expansion Modules, refer to the Intel
®
Server Board IO
