Network adapters

The following table lists the supported network adapters and upgrades. Adapters can be installed in either slot. However, compatible switches must be installed in the corresponding bays of the chassis. All adapters can also be installed in the PCIe Expansion Node. The "Maximum supported" column in the table indicates the number of adapter that can be installed in the server and in the PCIe Expansion Node

(PEN).
