Supported Intel SAS Expanders include several multiport mini-SAS HD (8643) connectors. Some are used as
output connectors to a backplane while others are used as input connectors from the RAID Module. The
following diagrams identify the connector types for each supported SAS expander card.

Input Cable Configuration NOTES:
The SAS Expander cards identified above can support one (1) or two (2) Input SAS port cables.
When routing two (2) input SAS port cables from the RAID Module, use cables from the same SAS domain, as
illustrated on the previous page.
Important notice:
Be careful not to connect a SAS expander to a RAID module port configured for NVMe use.
