Figure 7. Short Extender with Offset
Ensure the system can accommodate standard mounting of “Type B” form factor
boards using the NVIDIA extenders.
Using the standard NVIDIA extender ensures greatest forward compatibility with
future NVIDIA product offerings.
If the standard extender will not work, OEMs may design a custom attach method
using the extender mounting holes on the heat sink baseplate. The extender mounting
holes will vary among Tesla products, so designing for flexibility is recommended.
