When you buy the digital option, you will receive a software license key and 1 mini-SAS HD cable 1m
long.
Be careful that even if this cable has the same mechanical dimension of SFF-8644 standard the electrical
connection are customized, so it's not possible to use standard mini-SAS HD cables otherwise the unit
will be damaged.
There are also two additional accessories available to be used with the digital outputs. These accessories
must be bought separately because they are not included in the digital option. The two accessories are:
• The AT-LVDS-SMA8 cable. This is a mini-SAS to SMA cable adapter. It allows to convert the 8
digital LVDS output of the mini-SAS connector into 16 SMA connectors (2 SMA per LVDS pair)
• The AT-DTLL8. This is a probe that can be connected to the mini-SAS HD cable provided with the
dig license and it allows to convert LVDS output of the mini-SAS HD connector into LVTTL
standard signals.
The end of the mini-SAS HD cable provided with the digital options mechanically mates with standard
mini-SAS HD connectors while the electrical connection is different from the standard.
So if you need to connect the mini-SAS HD cable provided with the digital option, you can use standard
mini-SAS HD connectors (e.g. Amphenol 10112626-101LF, Amphenol 10112632-101LF, Amphenol
10120666-101LF, TE Connectivity 2198484-1) but you should take case of using the electrical connection
shown below.
The connection of the AT-LVDS-SMA8 cable adapter (mini-SAS HD to 16 SMA adapter cable) are also
described in the table below.
