PCIe riser 1 cable routing
Follow the instructions in this section to learn how to do cable routing for the PCIe riser 1.
Note
- When routing the cables, ensure that all cables are routed appropriately through the cable guides and cable clips.
- A label on each signal cable indicates the connection source and destination. This information is in the format RY-X and P Z. Where Y indicates the PCIe riser number, X indicates the connector on the riser card, and Z indicates the connector on the system board assembly.
Choose the routing plan according to the PCIe riser type.
