server node. SAS cables Multi-drive cables connect SAS drives in the various configurations identified in the Table 1 cabling matrix. Each SL6000 server node hard drive configuration requires cables with specific cable lengths and connector types to permit adequate air flow and accommodate space - HP ProLiant SL6000 | Configuring SATA and SAS in HP ProLiant SL6000 servers - Page 6
types To accommodate space constraints, cable assemblies may have unique mini SAS connectors. Figure 3 displays the available Mini SAS connector types for SL6000 server nodes. The Mini SAS connector types are specified to accommodate each server node configuration and are determined by the cable kit - HP ProLiant SL6000 | Configuring SATA and SAS in HP ProLiant SL6000 servers - Page 7
