Power Sync Cabling
When connected via the RJ-45 connectors, the power button on any chassis may
be used to power up or power down the entire system.
If you are using an external host controller, it should remain turned off until all
chassis are powered on and enumerated all slots.
Each cable used for multiple chassis power-up synchronization purposes should
not exceed 2 meters in length. Straight CAT5 or better cables are required.
