LSI SAS 9211-8i PCI Express to 6Gb/s SAS HBA User Guide
October 2014 Electrical and Environmental Specifications
 J7 and J8 – SFF-8087 mini-SAS, internal, right-angle connectors
 J6 – 4-pin, right angle, 0.1-in. pitch, pin header for driving external activity LED
6 Electrical and Environmental Specifications
The design and implementation of the LSI SAS 9211-8i HBA minimizes electromagnetic emissions, susceptibility to
radio frequency energy, and the effects of electrostatic discharge. The board carries the CE mark, C-Tick mark,
Canadian Compliance Statement, Korean KCC, Taiwan BSMI, Japan VCCI, and FCC Class B, and it is marked with the FCC
Self-Certification logo. The board also meets the requirements of CISPR Class B.
6.1 Electrical Characteristics
The maximum power requirements for the LSI SAS 9211-8i HBA under normal operation are as follows:
 PCIe 12.0 V = 1.21 A
 Power
— Nominal = 8.04 W
— Worst case = 14.63 W
 Operation range = 0 °C to 55 °C (32 °F to 131 °F)
6.2 Thermal and Atmospheric Characteristics
The atmospheric characteristics for the LSI SAS 9211-8i HBA are as follows:
 Temperature range: 0 °C to 55 °C (32 °F to 131 °F) (dry bulb)
 Relative humidity range: 5 percent to 90 percent noncondensing
 Maximum dew point temperature: 32 °C (89.6 ° F)
The following parameters define the storage and transit environment for the LSI SAS 9211-8i HBA:
 Temperature range: 45 °C to +105 °C (49 °F to +221 °F) (dry bulb)
 Relative humidity range: 5 percent to 90 percent noncondensing
6.3 Safety Characteristics
All LSI SAS 9211-8i HBAs meet or exceed the requirements of UL flammability rating 94V-0. Each bare board is marked
with the supplier’s name or trademark, type, and UL flammability rating. Because these boards are installed in a PCIe
bus slot, all voltages are less than the SELV 42.4-V limit.
7 Hardware Installation
This section provides detailed instructions on how to install your LSI SAS 9211-8i HBA.
1. Unpack the HBA, and inspect it for damage. Unpack the HBA in a static-free environment. Remove the HBA
from the antistatic bag and carefully inspect it for damage. If you notice any damage, or if any component is
missing, contact LSI or your reseller support representative.
ATTENTION Make a backup of your data before changing your system
configuration, or you might risk data loss.
