  • The NETINT T432 card has x8 and x16 signal specifications. x8 is used in that, although the recommended riser card in the typical hardware configuration provides x16 slots, the actual signal specification of the slot for inserting the encoding card is x8. The BIOS provides bandwidth splitting options, and only the four chips in a T432 card of the x8 signal specification can be identified.
  • The memory and drives must meet the device specifications and can be flexibly configured as required.
