1. A backplane slot detection method comprising:
providing a detection module and a first communication interface, wherein the first communication interface is configured to transfer data between the detection module and a first backplane;
transmitting a first detection packet from the detection module via the first communication interface;
receiving a first received packet by the detection module;
detecting a first loopback operation according to the first detection packet and the first received packet by the detection module; and
determining whether a first slot of the first backplane is present according to a detection of the first loopback operation.
