Note: The first DAE connection comes from these 6-Gb/s mini-SAS HD ports. This
connection uses a 36-pin mini-SAS HD small form-factor 8644 (SFF-8644) specification
connector (plug) with a pull (release) tab on one end (see Figure 13 on page 29) to a
26-pin mini-SAS small form-factor 8088 (SFF-8088) specification connector (plug) with a
pull tab on the other end cable.
The following illustration shows an example of the 6-Gb/s mini-SAS HD connector (socket)
and pinout.
