If a NIC card is required, install a compatible NIC card in mezz slot A or B. Connect the power cable Important! The DXG card can install in one of two positions and requires either a short power cable for mezzanine slot A, or long for mezzanine slot B. 1. Select the correct power cable, long for mezz slot B, short for mezz slot C. 2. Push the connector on the power cable through the square hole in the bracket (part A) and into the socket on the motherboard. See Figure 4. Important! Make sure the alignment feature aligns with the socket. The DXG card incorporates an MXM GPU for GPU enabled Virtual Desktop Infrastructure and compute solutions. The DXG card has a dual-slot form-factor. This guide tells you how to install and configure a DXG card on a Dell PowerEdge M640 blade server. An M640 blade can support one of this type of DXG card. See KBA 140 - Install a DXG-P6 in a M640 blade for full details. DXG kits Each kit includes: ■ DXG Graphics Virualization Card, with Nvidia or AMD MXM GPU; ■ 14G Mezzanine kit for the DXG card (includes mezzanine support bracket parts A and B, power cables for mezz slot B or C and support clip). Prepare the blade Important! Always use anti-static handling procedures to handle a DXG card or to work on the inside of a blade. Keep liquids away from the area. 1. Stop all VM activity on the blade. Shut down or migrate all virtual machines hosted by the blade. 2. In the VMware vSphere client, locate the ESXi server in the Inventory and put it in to Maintenance Mode. 3. Shut down the host M640 blade and remove it from the chassis. 4. Open the blade and remove any installed mezzanine cards. Remove the Dell mounting bracket 1. Remove the screw on the Dell mezzanine card mounting bracket and retain. 2. Remove the two screws from the Network Daughter Card (NDC) and retain. 3. Remove together the mounting bracket and NDC from the enclosure. 4. Discard this mounting bracket and install again the NDC with the two screws. Install the mezzanine support bracket (part A) Important! The bracket only fits one way in the blade. 1.
