Characteristics of the LSI 6Gb/s HBAs
UART Connector (J5). The UART connector debug port requires a special cable and LSI support to gather detailed
IOC status.
3.1.17.4 Physical Characteristics
The LSISAS9217-4i4e HBA is a 6.6-in × 2.7-in., low-profile board. The component height on the top and bottom of the
LSISAS9217-4i4e HBA is in accordance with the PCIe specification. The following figure shows the board layout.
