BTW, if you are able to get a 10 GbE card, you can exceed the rates of the PCIe link, with almost no downsides compared to PCIe.

I will second this.   10GiGe cards for PCs are not expensive these days, neither are the SFP+ optical transceivers.  Short
  optical patch-cords for these are also very very reasonably priced.

    Hi, I cannot get the NI-2943R (=Ettus x310) connected to the PC
    via the PCIe transport connection. The Ettus firmware is upgraded
    to the currently latest one, UHD version is
    UHD_4.7.0.0-0ubuntu1~jammy1. The default HG image was uploaded to
    Ettus. The upload was done via SFP+ Port 0 Interface, 1GbE copper
    SFP connected. Since I had Terasic PCIe x4 Cable Adapter (PCA)
    conversion card available, I would like to use that instead of
    1GbE SFP port.

    PC is Precision 3680 Tower WS. The OS is Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS with
    kernel Linux 6.8.0-49-generic. The NI Linux device drivers were
    installed according to the guide:
    https://files.ettus.com/manual/page_ni_rio_kernel.html

    Command lspci -k -d 1093:c4c4 returns nothing. I checked the
    Terasic PCIe x4 PCA LEDs during operation: If I first power on the
    NI-2943R before powering up the PC as recommended, the LEDs on PCA
    stay off. In the other order, powering up NI-2943R after the PC,
    the D2 edge, D3 power and DN2-DN4 (signal detect output for CH_B,
    receiver detect outputfor CH_A0 and CH_B0).

    I have tried various grub options, disabling power saving modes
    there and so on but now just more or less helpless. Does anyone
    has had similar issues with the similar HW.

    I attached output list of dmidecode, lspci and lshw commands.
