Figure 13 Cabling connections between MSA 2040 controllers and drive enclosures of mixed model type
The figure above provides sample diagrams reflecting cabling of MSA 2040 controller enclosures and
supported mixed model drive enclosures. In this example, the SFF drive enclosures follow the LFF drive
enclosures. Given that both drive enclosure models use 6 Gb SAS link-rate and SAS2.0 expanders, they
can be ordered in desired sequence within the array, following the controller enclosure.
The diagram at left shows fault-tolerant cabling of a dual-controller enclosure and mixed model drive
enclosures, and the diagram at right shows the same storage components connected using straight-through
cabling.
