6-Gb/s SAS LCC The 6-Gb/s SAS LCC supports, controls, and monitors the DAE, and is the primary
interconnect management element. Each LCC includes connectors for input and
output to downstream devices.
As described previously, the LCCs in a DAE connect to the DPE and other DAEs with
6-Gb/s cables. The cables connect the LCCs in a system together in a daisy-chain
(loop) topology.
