2. Remove the metal slot cover from slot 4 by sliding it out of the slot.
3. Holding the X520 card by its edges, position the card so that the connector on the X520 card aligns with
the expansion card connector on the riser
4. Insert the card-edge connector firmly into the expansion card connector until the card is fully seated.
5. (Optical 10 GbE option only) Insert an SFP+ unit into each 10 GbE port on the X520 card. (The SFP+
units are included with the optional 10 GbE network card.)
Installing the X540 Network Card
The X540 network card provides two 10 GBase-T Ethernet ports and is an available option for all DXi4700
configurations (see Table 5 below). The 10 GBase-T ports can be used for management, replication, or data
traffic. If ordered with the configuration, install the provided X540 10 GBase-T network card in PCIe slot 4,
located in expansion card riser 2 (see Figure 27 on the next page).
A DXi4700 system can be configured with either the optional X520 10 GbE network card or X540 10
GBase-T network card. The system cannot be configured with both cards.
