12Gb/s SAS HBA Certifications and Safety Characteristics

All Avago 12Gb/s SAS HBAs meet or exceed the requirements of UL flammability rating 94V-0. Each bare board is
marked with the supplier's name or trademark, type, and UL flammability rating. Because these boards are installed in
a PCIe bus slot, all voltages are less than the SELV 42.4-V limit.
The design and implementation of the 12Gb/s SAS HBA minimizes electromagnetic emissions, susceptibility to radio
frequency energy, and the effects of electrostatic discharge.
The 12Gb/s SAS HBA meets the following integrated electromagnetic interference (EMI) compliance labels:
CE mark

RCM mark

Canadian Compliance Statement

FCC Class B, marked with the FCC Self-Certification logo

UL Listed Mark for Canada/U.S.

Japan VCCI

Korean KCC

Taiwan BSMI

The 12Gb/s SAS HBA meets the following environmental directives:
Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS)

Waste of electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE)


Hardware Installation Instructions

To install the 12Gb/s SAS HBA, follow these steps:
1. Unpack the HBA, and inspect it for damage. Unpack the HBA in a static-free environment. Remove the HBA from
the anti-static bag, and carefully inspect the device for damage. If you notice any damage, contact Avago or your
reseller support representative.
2. Prepare the computer. Turn off the computer, and disconnect the power cord from the rear of the power supply.
3. Remove the cover from the chassis.
4. Insert the HBA into an available PCIe slot. Locate an empty x8 PCIe slot adequate for your board. Remove the
blank bracket panel on the rear of the computer that aligns with the empty PCIe slot. Save this bracket screw, if
applicable. Align the HBA to a PCIe slot. Press down gently, but firmly, to seat the HBA correctly in the slot. The
following figure shows how to insert the HBA into a PCIe slot.
ATTENTION To avoid the risk of data loss, back up your data before you change
your system configuration.
CAUTION Disconnect the computer from the power supply and from any
networks to which you will install the HBA, or you risk damaging the
system or experiencing electrical shock.
NOTE The shape, size, and locations of the components on your HBA and its
bracket might vary from this illustration. The HBA requires an x8 PCIe
slot.
