Abstract

The disclosed technology includes an assembly of two planar expansion card cards, which provides functionality to be leveraged by an upper planar expansion card. The base planar expansion card includes a first connector A, a first connector B, a connector C, a first pass-through connector A configured to connect to the first connector A, and a first pass-through connector B configured to connect to the first connector B. An upper planar expansion card includes a second connector A and a second connector B. The second connector A and the second connector B connect to the first pass-through connector A and the first B connector pass-through, respectively. In some implementations, the second connector A and second connector B are configured for a PCI-E and the connector C is configured for Ethernet KR signals.
