Abstract
An apparatus includes a circuit card substrate that is associated with a network interface card. The circuit card substrate includes a connector edge to be received in a connector that is nominally associated with a slot to receive an expansion card that, when installed in a computing device, is physically enclosed within the computing device. The apparatus includes a port connector that is mounted to the circuit card substrate. The port connector is to be accessible from a region outside of the computing device when the connector edge of the circuit card substrate is received in the connector.
