SAS/SATA Midplanes

The midplane serves as the primary interface between the server board, the hot-swap
backplane, and the control panel. Two midplanes are offered for this system:
•
Passive SATA/SAS
•
Active SAS/SAS RAID.

Passive Midplane

The passive midplane s used as an interconnect, routing drive control signals from either
the on-board SATA ports of the server board or SAS/SATA ports from an add-in card to
the hot-swap backplane. The following diagram show the location for each connector
found on the passive midplane.
