Characteristics of the LSI 6Gb/s HBAs
3.1.5.4 Physical Characteristics
The LSISAS9212-4i4e HBA is a 6.6-in. × 2.7-in. low-profile board. The component height on the top and bottom of the
LSISAS9212-4i4e HBA is in accordance with the PCIe specification.

 J1: PCIe x4-lane board edge connector
 J12: SFF-8088 mini-SAS, external, right-angle connector
 J5, J6, J7, J8: x1, internal 7-pin SATA connectors
 J11: 4-pin, right angle, 0.1-in. pitch, pin header for driving external activity LED
 J4: UART connection
3.1.6 LSISAS9200-16e HBA Characteristics
The LSISAS9200-16e HBA supports active copper cable and passive copper cable.
3.1.6.1 Memory
The LSISAS9200-16e HBA provides one 2-M × 16-bit Flash ROM for storing the firmware and BIOS, and provides
onboard DDR2 SDRAM.
3.1.6.2 LEDs
The LSISAS9200-16e HBA has two 4-pin headers for external connection of activity LEDs. The LEDs on header J4
correspond to activity on ports 2 and 3, and header J5 corresponds to activity on Port 0 and Port 1.
3.1.6.3 Connectors
This section describes the different connectors on the LSISAS9200-16e HBA. See Figure 7 for connector locations.
PCIe Connector (J10). The LSISAS9200-16e HBA supports a x8 interface. The PCIe host interface connection is
through the edge connector, J10, which provides connections on both the top (J10B) and bottom (J10A) of the board.
The signal definitions and pin numbers conform to the PCIe specification.
