SAS/SATA

Cable

Connectors

The two external SAS/SATA connectors provide high-speed, differential connections to
the test initiator (host) and target (device-under-test, or for brevity, DUT). These
connectors support the external-to-internal SATA cables provided.

SAS InFusion Rear Panel

The SAS InFusion rear panel consists of two BNC Input/Output connectors, one USB
connector, an Ethernet port, and a power connector (Figure 2).

BNC

Input/Output

Connectors

The two BNC connectors are ports for Trigger In and Trigger Out signals for the box. They
allow you to daisy-chain the box with other SAS InFusion boxes for multi-link tests. They
also allow you to connect the SAS InFusion box to an external test device, such as an
analyzer or oscilloscope.

The Trigger In signal is used to inject an error or other action into the protocol data stream
at a specific instance in time, while the Trigger Out signal can be asserted when a pattern
match or error injection occurs during SAS InFusion operation.
