Description

PCI card module

technical field

The utility model relates to a PCI card module, in particular to a PCI card module suitable for servers.

Background technique

The server is the core computer that serves each computer in the network system. It can provide functions such as disk and printing services required by network users, and it can also be used by various clients to share various resources in the network environment with each other. The basic structure of the server is roughly the same as that of a general personal computer. It is composed of a central processing unit (CPU), a memory (Memory) and an input/output (I/O) device, and is internally connected by a bus (Bus). Connected, the central processing unit and the memory are connected through the north bridge chip, and the input/output devices are connected through the south bridge chip.

Generally, a PCI card can be inserted into a circuit board in a server to store data or transmit data to the circuit board. Specifically, slots can be configured on the circuit board, and PCI cards are inserted into the slots. However, if the combination between the slot and the PCI card is not tight enough, the PCI card will easily become loose.
