Hi Moganesh,

On the DE3 Stratix III Dev Kit, the HSTC connectors are male, and the THDB-SUM HSMC connectors are also male. They are compatible but you must use a female-to-female adapter in-between. These should have been included in the DE3 package.

Please do NOT insert the daughter card on the underside of the development kit. You will risk damaging the FPGA.
