Connectors
This section provides a description of the three connectors on the HBA. See FIGURE A-1 for connector locations.
PCI-X connector -- The PCI-X interface operates as a 32-bit or 64-bit DMA bus master. The connection is made through the internal connector, which is a +3.3 V type board edge connector. The signal definitions and pin numbers conform to the PCI-X specifications. See FIGURE A-1 for connector locations.
SAS connectors -- The SAS connections are SFF-8088 mini-SAS external right-angle connectors.

PCI Performance
PCI features of the HBA include:
- Supports a 133-MHz, 64-bit PCI-X interface that does the following:
- Operates up to 133 MHz PCI-X
- Operates at 33 MHz or 66 MHz PCI
- Supports 32-bit or 64-bit data transfers
- Supports 32-bit or 64-bit addressing through Dual Address Cycles (DAC)
- Provides a theoretical 1064 Mbytes/s PCI bandwidth
- Complies with the PCI Local Bus Specification, revision 3.0
- Complies with the PCI-X Addendum to the PCI Local Bus Specification, revision 2.0
- Complies with the PCI Bus Power Management Interface Specification, revision 1.2
- Complies with the PC2001 Specification
- Provides high throughput and low CPU utilization to offload the host processor
- Presents a single electrical load to the PCI Bus
- Reduces Interrupt Service Routine (ISR) overhead with interrupt coalescing
- Supports 32-bit or 64-bit data bursts with variable burst lengths
- Supports the PCI Cache Line Size register
- Supports the PCI Memory Write and Invalidate, Memory Read Line, and Memory Read Multiple commands
- Supports the PCI-X Memory Read Dword, Split Completion, Memory Read Block, and Memory Write Block commands
- Supports 16 PCI-X Split Transaction cycles
- Supports backward compatibility with previous revisions of the PCI specification
- Provides a full 32-bit or 64-bit PCI-X DMA bus master
Electrical and Environmental Specifications
The design and implementation of the HBA minimizes electromagnetic emissions, susceptibility to radio frequency energy, and the effects of electrostatic discharge. The board carries the CE mark, C-Tick mark, Canadian Compliance Statement, Korean MIC, Taiwan BSMI, Japan VCCI, FCC Class B, and is marked with the FCC Self-Certification logo. The board also meets the requirements of CISPR Class B.

Safety Characteristics
The HBA meets or exceeds the requirements of UL flammability rating 94V-0. Each bare board is marked with the supplier's name or trademark, type, and UL flammability rating. Because these boards are installed in a PCI or PCI-X bus slot, all voltages are below the SELV 42.4 V limit.
