A first slot connector is mounted within a housing of an electronic system and is for connecting to a first plug-in card. A mezzanine board is installed within the housing. A second slot connector is mounted on the mezzanine board for connecting to a second plug-in card. The first and second plug-in cards align with similarly-shaped slot access panels in the electronic system.
