3.1.4 LSISAS3800X Host Adapter Characteristics
The LSISAS3800X uses a standard PCI bracket as shown in Figure 3.4 .
3.1.4.1 LEDs
The LSISAS3800X host adapter has eight LEDs that turn green to
indicate an activity condition on any of the eight phys. There are eight
LEDs that turn yellow to indicate a fault condition on any of the eight
phys. See
Figure 3.4 for LED locations.
The LSISAS3800X host adapter has two light pipes routed through the
PCI bracket. One light pipe turns green to indicate activity on any phy.
The other light pipe is bi-color. It flashes green to indicate the
LSISAS1068 heartbeat, or it turns yellow when the LSISAS1068
firmware detects a fault condition.
3.1.4.2 Connectors
This section provides a description of the three different connectors on
the LSISAS3800X host adapter. See
Figure 3.4 for connector locations.
PCI/PCI-X Connector (J1) – The PCI/PCI-X interface operates as a
32-bit or 64-bit DMA bus master. The connection is made through the
edge connector J1, which is a +3.3 V type board edge connector. The
signal definitions and pin numbers conform to the PCI/PCI-X
specifications.
SAS/SATA Connectors (J2 and J5) – The LSISAS3800X supports
SAS connections through connectors J2 and J5. The J2 and J5
connectors are SFF-8470 SAS external right-angle connectors.
J8 – 4-pin, right angle, 0.1-inch pitch, pin header for driving external
activity LED.
