Note: When you connect SAS cables between enclosures, review and follow the guidelines to ensure that

your configuration is valid. Do not begin connecting the cables until you read “SAS cabling guidelines” on

page 63.

Procedure
To install the cables, complete the following steps.

SAS cabling guidelines

When you connect SAS cables between expansion enclosures, you must follow guidelines to ensure that

your configuration is valid.

Orienting the connector
When you insert SAS cables, make sure the connector (Figure 62 on page 63) is oriented correctly.
• The orientation of the connector must match the orientation of the port before you push the connector

into the port. The cable connector and socket are keyed, and it is important that you have proper

alignment of the keys when the cable is inserted.

• Insert the connector gently until it clicks into place. If you feel resistance, the connector is probably

oriented the wrong way. Do not force it.

• When inserted correctly, the connector can be removed only by pulling the tab.
• When both ends of a SAS cable are inserted correctly, the green link LEDs next to the connected SAS

ports are lit.

Guidelines
Be aware of the following guidelines when you attach the cables to the SAS ports.

Connecting SAS cables
Be aware of the following guidelines when you attach the cables to the SAS ports in 2U expansion

enclosures.
• No more than 10 expansion enclosures can be chained to SAS port 1 of a node canister. The expansion

enclosures in this chain must be installed below the control enclosure.

• For systems:

– No more than 10 expansion enclosures can be chained to SAS port 2 of a node canister. The

expansion enclosures in this chain must be installed above the control enclosure.
