NVMe Switch Adapter

Figure 4  Backplane with x8 Connectors and VPP

5  Sideband Signals

The adapter has four x8 SFF-8654 connectors. Each x8 connector provides two sets of sidebands. This section describes 
the sideband signals usage. The following table defines the sideband signal’s pins on the SFF-8654 connector. The last 
column in the table indicates the strength of the pull-up resistor or pull-down resistor values on the adapter. See 

Table 2, 

Sideband Management Pin Settings

, for the signal descriptions, and see 

Table 7, Internal Connector Pinout

, for a complete 

connector pinout.
