Nytro MegaRAID Card Characteristics
Connectors
3.3.2 UART Connector (J5)
The UART connector debug port requires a special cable and LSI support to gather detailed Input/Output Controller
(IOC) status.
3.3.3 Modular RAID Key Header (J6)
J6 is a two-pin header that provides for connecting a modular RAID Key board for upgrades. There is no Modular
RAID Key.
3.3.4 SAS/SATA Connector (J7)
The Nytro MegaRAID card support 6Gb/s SAS/SATA connection through connector J7. SATA or SAS device are
connected directly to the card or though an expander. The cards contain one mini-SAS 4i connectors (SFF-8087) that
contains four SAS ports.
3.3.5 Flash Module Connectors(J8 and J9)
Connectors J8 and J9 are used to connect the Nytro Flash modules to the Nytro MegaRAID card.
3.3.6 LSI Test Header (J10)
This header is reserved for LSI testing purposes.
3.3.7 PCIe Connector (J11)
The Nytro MegaRAID card supports a x8 PCIe interface. The PCIe host interface connection is through the edge
connector, J11, which provides connections on both the top (J11B) and bottom (J11A) of the board. The signal
definitions and pin numbers conform to the PCIe specification.
3.3.8 Physical Characteristics
The Nytro MegaRAID cards are 6.6-in. × 2.7-in. and are low-profile boards. The component height on the top and
bottom of the cards are in accordances with the PCIe specification.
