Physical Characteristics The LSI 12Gb/s SAS HBA is a 6.6-in. × 2.7-in., low-profile board. The component height on the top and bottom of the LSI 12Gb/s SAS HBA is in accordance with the PCIe specification. The following figure shows the HBA board layout.
LSI 12Gb/s SAS HBA Certifications and Safety Characteristics All LSI 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.
Replace the cover of the chassis. Connect SAS cables between the HBA and the SAS enclosure that contains SATA or SAS devices. The LSI 12Gb/s SAS HBA has two, SFF-8644, external x4 mini-SAS HD connectors. Use a cable with an external mini-SAS HD connector (SFF-8644) on one end (to connect to the HBA) and the appropriate connector to attach to the enclosure that contains SAS or SATA devices on the other end.
