Overview of managing PCI adapters

Learn how to use and manage Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) adapters. Find general information about PCI Express, related publications, safety information, and handling static sensitive devices.

The following features are electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) Class B features. See the Class B Notices in the Hardware Notices section.

The adapter information that is shown here is used during non-directed service activities. The information can be used to:
  • Identify an adapter
  • Find specific technical information about an adapter
  • Where applicable, show special installation or cabling instructions
  • Show signal names for the output-pins of the adapter connectors
  • Where applicable, show the settings for switches or jumpers

Adapters can be identified by their feature code (FC) or their custom-card identification number (CCIN). Normally, the CCIN number is labeled on the adapter.

The FRU part number (P/N) of your adapter might not match the FRU P/N listed in this information. If the part numbers do not match, verify that the CCIN is the same. If the CCIN is same, the adapter has the same function and can be used in the same way.

Adapters must be placed in specific peripheral component interconnect (PCI), PCI-X, or PCI Express (PCIe) slots to function correctly or optimally. See the PCI adapter placement for system-specific information about which slots are available and which adapters can be placed in those slots.
