6.1 SAS Bus Connections

The SAS bus on the iSCSI bridge is capable of running at high data transfer speeds, however, devices that
operate at slower speeds can still be connected to this SAS bus. In a manner similar to the Ethernet
connection, the iSCSI bridge will automatically negotiate with these devices to obtain their optimal operating
speed upon power up. Each SAS port will support up to 2 SAS connections.

Connect the SAS cable to the rear of the iSCSI bridge as shown below, ensuring that connector is oriented
correctly.
