I/O Slots
With the upgrade, the ProLiant 7000 I/O section will increase the I/O bandwidth to match the
higher processing bandwidth.
Because the I/O slots are defined by a panel insert rather than solid
sheet metal (Figure 16), the upgrade can be accomplished easily by replacing the I/O panel
inserts.
