Before you start
There are a number of additional pieces of equipment you will require for the successful installation of your
bridge.
Ethernet Cable
You will require a good quality cable of suitable length to go between your network access point and the
iSCSI bridge. This should be marked as certified to Cat 5e and have a RJ45 style connector at the bridge
end.
SAS Cable
The TL24iSCSIxSAS 1 Gb iSCSI bridge uses a “Mini SAS” style connector, or more commonly known as
iPASS connector, with 2 SAS connections per Port. You will require a SAS cable that supports this
connector at the bridge end and the type of connect your peripheral device supports at the other.
If you are in any doubt, please contact your reseller for assistance.
