PCIe to PCIe cabling

Thanks JackMDS.
I have two boards each one has it's own power supply. One board is processing data and the other board is gate to receive and send data from/to different links. Both has PCIe slot. I tried too connect them through a cable but it didn't even recognize each other. I though a signal conflict.
 
If I give John $1, I can say "I gave him Money".

If I give John $1000, I can say "I gave him Money".

"I gave him Money" = "I gave him Money"

Thus $1 equal $1000 These are called "False Verbal Analogies".

Unfortunately (for reason not to discuss here) this type of Analogy start to dominates our society.

The fact that most Computers' Mobos have PCIe slots and they all call Computer Mobos does not mean that technically they are build to work together.

In matter of fact if you would try to connect them, one or both will be Fried. I.e, electrical shortage will occur and destroy them.

I still not sure what you would like to do.

The solution might be to put an additional Network card on one computer so it has two cards and then to Bridge the Networks between the cads so it can get data from two sources.

ok so these boards are not even standard atx motherboards and i am assuming you are talking about developmental boards, or special usages ones.

Next question did you read the manual where it said that the 2 boards can be connected via the port that looks like a pci-e port?

If you just need a direct connection, you may be in trouble as i have never seen a pci-e riser with both male ends. That is what you need to look for, a pci-e riser with both male ends.

Now if your thinking you can plug in 2 pci-e express slots to each other on different STD PC ATX boards, then no. It does not work that way as Elf states and infact doing so will most likely end up frying the pci-e ports on both boards.

Can you take a picture with your smart phone.
