Typical RAID Channel Configurations

NOTE:

When using the optional InfoStation I/O repeater modules, StorCase recommends the

use of Port A-1 & A-2 when configuring typical RAID channels (as shown in Figure

3B). In the special cases where extra length cables are required (up to 12m max-

imum), use Port B instead.
