Optional interfaces

You have the option of adding optional interfaces to your device. On the one hand, you can do this using PCIe® modules. This requires the device to be equipped with two PCIe® module slots (C9900-B502). The depth of the inner housing cover increases by 26 mm due to the module slots. On the other hand, you can order additional interfaces ex factory, which are led out in the connection section of the device.

To install a PCIe® module in your device, you must first remove the panels. To do this, remove the two M3 screws from the panels.
