3.1.3 Connecting the HBA to the B08S2-PS System for DAS
1. Connect the HBA to the ExaSAN B08S2-PS with a QSFP PCIe cable. Insert one end of the QSFP
cable into the host port on the rear panel of B08S2-PS. Your cable connector is securely plugged
when you hear a click. If you need to unplug the cable, pull the ring on the connector firmly until it is
detached from the port. Note that the QSFP used in the photo illustration below is a QSFP optical
cable. If the distance between the switch and the host system is less than 2 meters in your case, the
included QSFP copper cable will suffice.
