3.1.18.3 Connectors
This section describes the different connectors on the LSISAS9206-16e HBA. See Figure 19 for connector locations.
PCIe Connector (J2B1). The LSISAS9206-16e HBA supports a x8 interface. The PCIe host interface connection is
through the edge connector (J2B1) which provides connections on both the top and bottom of the board. The signal
definitions and pin numbers conform to the PCIe specification.
SAS Connectors (J1A2). The LSISAS9206-16e HBA supports SAS/SATA connections through J1A2 Port 0, Port 1,
Port 2, and Port 3, which are SFF-8644 mini-SAS HD, external, right-angle connectors.
UART Connectors (J2A1 and J2A2). The UART connector debug port requires a special cable and LSI support to
gather detailed IOC status.
3.1.18.4 Physical Characteristics
The LSISAS9206-16e HBA is a 6.6-in × 2.7-in., low-profile board. The component height on the top and bottom of the
LSISAS9206-16e HBA is in accordance with the PCIe specification. The following figure shows the board layout.
