Note: If the server has one SMP Expansion Module installed, you must connect the RXE Expansion cable to RXE Expansion Port A on the server. If the server has two SMP Expansion Modules installed, connect the cable to RXE Expansion Port B. 5. Using an RXE Expansion cable, connect one end of the cable to RXE Expansion Port B on the RXE-100 enclosure. 6. Connect the opposite end of the cable to RXE Expansion Port A or B on the second server. Note: When two SMP Expansion Modules are installed, both of the RXE Expansion ports are active. Chapter 2.
