When cabling the 15-drive DAE LCC SAS ports, ensure that the cables do not overlap
behind the DAE. The illustration above demonstrates the proper method for cabling to
the DAE LCC SAS ports.
Procedure
1. Label a pair of mini-SAS HD cables using the appropriate labels (orange, blue,
lack, green, brown, or cyan) shown here.
Typically, DAEs connect to other DAEs using 1-meter cables.
