behind the DAE. The illustration above demonstrates the proper method for cabling to
the DAE LCC SAS ports.
Procedure
1. Label a pair of mini-SAS HD cables using the appropriate labels (orange, blue,
lack, green, brown, or cyan) shown here.
Typically, DAEs connect to other DAEs using 1-meter cables.
