Multi-Host 16 Slot PCI Express® Expansion System
Remotely Manage Sixteen I/O Cards Attached to Multiple Servers
Smart, Manageable, Multi-Host Expansion
PCI Express connectivity has matured well beyond the early days of PCI into a fully capable "outside the box" high-speed interconnect for the most demanding mission critical applications in HPC and IT infrastructures. As cloud computing and remote services become standard, offering a flexible, manageable, and cost effective expansion solution is demanded for high-speed Ethernet, HBAs, fibre channel SAN controllers, GPUs, video accelerators, and more.
Designed for high performance computing (HPC) and data center environments
•Partition expansion slots among four individual servers
•Add any combinations of x1, x4, x8 and x16 PCIe cards
•x8 or x16 interconnect options - speeds up to 80Gbps
•850W, 1700W or 850W redundant power supply
•Remote monitoring with SNMP and Web Interface
•Add (16) slots through a single host slot
ExpressBox 16 expands one host PCIe® slot to sixteen slots by extending PCI Express signals over a high-bandwidth x8 or x16 connection to an external Magma enclosure. When combined with Magma's software utility, Express I/O Manager, technology managers have the flexibility to partition slots inside the expansion chassis to up to four separate servers. Express I/O Manager also provides access to monitor the most critical components like power temperature, fans and PCI Express links through an Ethernet connection. The software tool can be integrated with any SNMP agent in the IT network.
Expansion Partitioning Between Multiple Servers
A unique feature of the Express Box 16 Smart allows the PCIe expansion slots to be partitioned and between 4 different servers. Using the Express IO Manager, 3 different partitioning configurations can be selected. In the default configuration, all 16 expansion slots are accessed by one host computer. Configurations 3and 3 provides up to 3 expansion cards per server at x16 speeds, and up to seven expansion cards for a fourth server at x8 speeds. A separate host adapter is required for each server.

How to hot-plug a pcie card that is installed in the Magma EB7x8 Gen2 expansion chassis. In order to perform the hot-plug, the Magma EB7X8 Gen2 chassis should have the Hot-Plug feature enabled first. And the chassis should and always be connected to a computer. You can't hot-plug a PCIE card when the host computer is not attached (and turned on). Also, the PCIE card must support hot-plug, meaning the PCIE card is hot-pluggable.

How to minimize the fan noise in the expansion chassis
Using the fan control switch to minimize the fan noise or to control the speed of the fan in the expansion chassis. Locate the dip switch on the expansion board and set it to ON position.
Slow down the fan speed, toggle the switch to On position
High speed, toggle the switch to Off Position
Off means the Fan is running continiously on high speed
On means the fan is being controlled by the thersmistor, so that it runs at low speed unless the thermistor detects elevated temperatures and increases the fan speed.

How to properly connect the new 550 Watt PSU on expansion board.
We used four form factors of expansion boards on this tutorial.
PE6R4-I, 7slot, 13slot and EB7 boards.
The expansion backplane has a ATX slot for the 20 pin connector. The new 500 and 550 power supplies have 24pin ATX power connector, which works OK with the 20pin slot of the expansion backplane
The male ATX connector on the power supply has a wide locking tab, make sure this tab aligns with the tab on the female ATX connector. Note that the break away 4pin portion of the ATX connector sits on the right side when the connectors are mated.
