Mini-SAS HD
Next generation SAS storage interface
DESCRIPTION
The Mini-SAS HD product is the next
generation SAS storage interface addressing
channel bandwidth requirements of 6 Gb/s to
12 Gb/s meeting or exceeding the respective
SAS 2.1 and proposed SAS 3.0 specifications.
The Mini-SAS HD product provides greater
port density (11mm port-to-port) versus the
existing Mini-SAS 2.0 product (19.01mm
port-to-port). FCI’s Mini-SAS HD product is
fully compliant to the SFF-8643 and SFF-8644
industry specifications. Internal and external
connector configurations of the Mini-SAS
HD product include 1X1 (4x), 1X2 (8x), and
1X4(16x) and enables 4x and 8x internal &
external cable assembly solutions which
include EEPROM communication. The Mini-
SAS HD profile design is PCI Express
compatible and can be utilized in PCI Express
architecture applications.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
IMLA based board connector insures compliance to the SAS
2.1 & proposed 3.0 electrical performance criteria
Internal and external board connector and cable assemblies
provide end-to-end application solutions
1X1, 1X2 and 1X4 connector/cage assemblies offer product family
design flexibility
All board connectors and configurations are fully 6G and 12G
compliant allowing for use of same part numbers when system
speeds increase from 6G to 12G
Metal cages on the external connector and cables provide 360°
EMI shielding and replaces problematic EMC elastomeric gaskets
Cable assemblies offered in 4x and 8x configurations
Eye-of-the-needle connector and cage single step termination
yields consistent application to the PCB
The external cable strain relief results in an axial pull force in excess
of 20 lbs
Cable latch design reduces cable insertion force and un-mating issues
Pull tabs are available in multiple lengths in Pantone 279 color to meet
many application needs.
Positive stop feature on the casting prevents external cable assembly
mating over-travel.
Hybrid external cables (mini-SAS HD to mini-SAS) allow for backwards
compatible cabling with legacy system hardware
