Locate the SAS fan-out cable
Locate the appropriate qualified SAS fan-out cable option for your MSA 1050 SAS controller module. Qualified fan-out
cable options are briefly described in “Cable requirements for MSA 1050 enclosures” (page 18).
NOTE: Qualified SAS fan-out cable options are labeled on the host connection end of each bifurcated cable. Hosts
should be connected to the same ports on both controller modules to align with the usage shown in the SMU.
Check the QuickSpecs for additional information such as supported cable lengths.
