, is used for accessing the controller-embedded
configuration utility through the network that allows you to configure
and monitor your array and upgrade firmware over a VT-100 terminal
emulation program running on a management computer. An audio
jack to DB9 cable is shipped with your subsystem to facilitate the
connection.
The second COM port, marked as
COM2
is for uninterruptible power
supply (UPS) connection. An optional audio jacks to DB-9 serial
communication cable is available for purchase. Please refer to
Appendix A
for instructions on connecting a UPS.

rear panel provide easy controller module installation and secure the
controller module in place.
♦
Drive
: All models come with sixteen (16) SATA drive channels that
