Abstract: An apparatus includes a pass-through module that includes connector pins to connect with at least one active portion of a motherboard connector and to separately connect with at least one inactive portion of the motherboard connector. A routing function on the pass-through module redirects a set of bidirectional lanes from the connector pins connected to the active portion of the motherboard connector to the connector pins connected to the inactive portion of the motherboard connector to enable a connection of the set of bidirectional lanes to at least one other motherboard resource connected to the inactive portion of the motherboard connector.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a memory card that includes at least one memory module and an expansion connector to connect with at least one expansion memory card. A lane distributor on the memory card interfaces with a set of bidirectional lanes and provides a base lane set and an expanded lane set of bidirectional lanes to support communications with the memory module and the expansion memory card via the expansion connector.

Abstract: Power loss in a client device is detected. In response to the detecting of the power loss, an electronic card is alerted that the power loss is about to occur, where the electronic card includes a volatile storage and a non-volatile storage. A transfer of data from the volatile storage to the non-volatile storage is triggered in response to the alert.

Abstract: Examples of adapters for transmitting signals are disclosed. In one example implementation according to aspects of the present disclosure, an adapter may include a first connector communicatively couplable to PCIe port of a computing system via a first plurality of pins and a second connecter communicatively couplable to an electronic device via a second plurality of pins. The first plurality of pins is communicatively coupled to the second plurality of pins. Additionally, signals of a first type are transmittable between the computing system and the electronic device via a first subset of the first and the second pluralities of pins and signals of a second type are transmittable between the computing system and the electronic device via a second subset of the first and the second pluralities of pins. The second subset of the first plurality of pins and the second plurality of pins conforms to the SFF 8639 standard.

Abstract: A host device has a hardware-based remote control mode and a softwarebased remote control mode. The availability of each of the hardware- and software-based remote control modes is monitored. Client device remote control of the host device is selectively switched between the hardware- and softwarebased remote control modes, based on the monitored availability of each remote control mode.
