MXI-Express Connectors
Refer to your MXI-Express hardware user manual for connector information.
Note The RMC-8357 BIOS supports only 188 PCI buses by default. For large
multichassis systems requiring more than 188 PCI buses, use the NI MXI-Express
BIOS Compatibility Software to work around this limitation on Windows. To access
the NI MXI-Express BIOS Compatibility Software, search for MXI-Express BIOS
Compatibility Software at
