Zusammenfassung:An information handling system may include a main chassis and a motherboard-less expansion chassis. The main chassis may include a host system motherboard and a first host interconnect card. The motherboard-less expansion chassis may include a second host interconnect card communicatively coupled to the first interconnect card via an external cable having one or more in-band signal channels and one or more sideband signal channels, a first information handling resource configured to communicate data with the host system motherboard via the one or more in-band signal channels, and a second information handling resource configured to communicate control signals with the host system motherboard via the one or more sideband signal channels.
