12 Intel® RAID Controller SASWT4I Hardware User’s Guide
Technical Specifications
The design and implementation of the Intel
®
RAID Controller SASWT4I minimizes
electromagnetic emissions, susceptibility to radio frequency energy, and the effects of
electrostatic discharge.
Table 2 lists the specifications for the
Intel
®
RAID Controller SASWT4I.
LEDs
The host adapters have four LEDs, labeled A0–A3, that turn green to indicate an activity
condition on any of the four phys. There are four LEDs, labeled LNP0–LNP3, that turn
yellow to indicate a fault condition on any of the four phys. See Figure 4 for LED
locations.
The host adapters have 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 adapter heartbeat, or it
turns yellow when the adapter firmware detects a fault condition.
