Baseboard replacement When removing a Baseboard always work very carefully and do not bend the baseboards nor use greater force to get them into place. Pay attention to the newtork cables that are located right under the baseboards. They or the baseboards can be damaged if not handeled with care. Check if they are still properly fixed to the case and don't stack over each other more than 2 mm.

Extension card installation It is possible to install an extension card like a graphics card on the PCIe x16 slot of an v3.1 CXP baseboard. A special riser card is needed to connect the card. The I/O shield of the card has to be removed. The 6-pin power connector on the baseboard can deliver up to 300W, but a special cable may be required to connect the 6-pin plug to the card, as the cards have different connectors (6pin, 8pin or a mix).

Netboard installation All netboards (1GbE or 10GbE) have the same connector (as seen below) underneath and are all mounted on the three connectors on the backplane. Each netboard provides the compute network to the two baseboards that are plugged in right next to them. It is also possible to mix different netboards, as they are independent of each other.
