RAID Expander Card RES2SV240 SAS/SATA Connectors
SAS/SATA Connector Pin-out
Signal names are with respect to the host; the device connected to the host reverses the
signal names. Transmit pins connect to receive pins on the other device. The SAS/SATA
connector is keyed at pin 1. These pin-outs for the serial ATA connector are not
compatible with the legacy PATA connector.
Each SFF8087 connector on this expander card can be used as input or output connector.
Input means the connector is used to connect to initiator device such as RAID controller
or RAID module. output means the connector is used to connect to target device such as
backplane or hard drive.
Shipment of this expander card only includes long SFF8087 to SFF8087 cables for output
usage and short SFF8087 to SFF8087 cables for input usage.
