together with a set of plug-in modules and (as supplied) consists of:
v An enclosure chassis with:
– A backplane PCB
– An enclosure management PCB
– A SAS expander PCB, to branch from 4 to 12 SAS ports, supporting SATA
tunnelling protocol
– A front operator's panel
– An integral rear panel, incorporating an enclosure ID LED
– A power supply mounting cage containing one 850-W plug-in power supply
unit (PSU)
