   Each optional 19-inch PCIe Gen3 4U I/O Expansion Drawer provides 12 PCIe Gen 3 slots.
   The I/O expansion drawer connects to the system unit with a pair of PCIe x16 to optical CXP
   converter adapters housed in the system unit. Each system node can support up to four I/O
   expansion drawers. Thus, a fully configured Power E870 can support a maximum of eight I/O
   expansion drawers.
