Sideband signal transmission between host and input/output adapter

   
   

Sideband communication capability is incorporated into an Input/Output Adapter (IOA) and/or a host apparatus in a manner that permits the communication of base I/O and other sideband signals between an IOA and a host apparatus without conflicting with standard IOA and/or I/O architecture form factors. The primary connector of an IOA may be selectively partitioned to permit sideband information to be communicated across the primary connector, often without compromising the primary communication functionality of the primary connector. In lieu of or in addition to such a partitioned connector, a second, sideband connector may be incorporated into an IOA and/or host apparatus.
