Two JBOD2000S3SP Cascade
Figure 28 below shows two cascaded single-port JBOD2000S3SP connecting to the SAS HBA or RAID
adapter with one mini-SAS cable. The function of SAS port "A PRI" and "B PRI" on JBOD2000S3SP are
equivalent. Either "A PRI" or "B PRI" SAS port can be connected to the SAS adapter or cascaded with other
JBOD2000S3SP in this scenario. SATA or SAS hard drive can be supported.

Figure 29 below shows another connection scenario in which the SAS HBA or RAID adapter has two external
mini-SAS connectors. Other group of two cascaded single-port JBOD2000S3SP can be connected to the
host adapter with one mini-SAS cable. Users can get more storage space with this kind of connection mode.
