The SAS-NEM
This chapter describes the functionality of a SAS-NEM as it pertains to connecting
server and disk modules.
Installation of SAS-NEMs is covered briefly in this manual because a Sun Blade 6000
Disk Module does not work without the presence of a SAS-NEM.
SAS-NEMs are fully described in their own documentation. Refer to the
Sun Blade
6000 Disk Module Administration Guide
(820-4922) for a complete list of supported
SAS-NEMs.

Overview of the SAS-NEM
There are various Network Express Modules that can be plugged into the Sun Blade
6000 Modular System chassis. SAS-NEMs are those that contain circuitry to provide
multiple SAS connections to disk drives. All Network Express Modules, including
SAS-NEMs, plug into the Network Express Module slots on the back of the chassis
and are hot-pluggable.
