On the left side, there is a white vertical label with black text that reads 'SUN' at the top, 'ISA EXPANSION CARD' in the center, and 'PN: 043-1549-XX' at the bottom. The board is populated with several black integrated circuit chips, including one labeled '140131' and another with '333'. Small black surface-mount components are scattered across the board. A white connector is attached to the far left edge, and a gold edge connector is visible at the bottom right.](.pci-c588-c584-pcie-c588-c584-c514-c485-c422-datasheet-20180417/3c5f2750f9f51631a5658b8b8993fd8cf7db0d9437a11b40a88f737b1defa10c.jpg)
