ATTO XstreamCORE SAS connections connect SAS or SATA storage devices into the Ethernet Storage Area Network (SAN). Use an Ethernet
connection to use the ATTO XstreamVIEW™ System Manager.
Make sure all cables are anchored securely at both ends with the proper connectors.
SAS/SATA connections
The XstreamCORE supports a wide variety of SAS & SATA
storage devices.
The lengths in the table are for passive copper cables
Each SAS connection is totally independent from the other
SAS connections. SAS PHY auto-negotiates the appropriate
sync rates with the connected devices. Check the type of
cable, cable length limit and number of devices
recommended for each port.
Fibre Channel management connection
Fibre Channel technology offers a variety of cabling options.
The type of cable required varies depending upon the
application, environment, distance, and product.
Long wave operation requires long wave SFP+
modules (not supplied).
Appendix A Cabling
Keep cable lengths as short as possible to ensure the highest
signal quality and performance. These cable lengths include
the wiring inside the devices.
