SPARC Server T5-4 and SPARC Server T5-8 require a doublewide PCIe hot plug carrier extension for each installed Sun Flash Accelerator F40 PCIe Card to facilitate air flow. Doublewide carriers do not allow the use of one adjacent PCIe slot. PCIe hot plug carrier extensions (Mkt PN 710710) are installed in odd numbered PCIe slots. The Sun Flash Accelerator F40 PCIe Card cannot be installed in slot 16.
Refer to the SPARC Server T5-4 documentation for more information on card installation at: http://www.oracle.com/goto/T5-4/docs.
Refer to the SPARC Server T5-8 documentation for more information on card installation at: http://www.oracle.com/goto/T5-8/docs.
The following figure shows an example of doublewide PCIe hot plug carrier extensions that populate two PCIe slots for each Sun Flash Accelerator F40 PCIe Card.
