Learn about connector locations on rack-mounted models.
The
8205-E6C server
provides cable connector locations for the following enclosures:
- Support for expansion units, as shown in the following figure,
is as follows:
- The card installed in the C1 slot can contain two 12X double data
rate (DDR) cable ports. However, the C1 slot cannot provide both 12X
DDR and PCIe cable ports.
- The card installed in the C8 slot can contain two 12X DDR cable
ports. However, the C8 slot cannot provide both 12X DDR and PCIe cable
ports.
- The port card type installed in the C1 slot can differ from the
port card type installed in the C8 slot.
- The server contains a serial-attached SCSI (SAS) port.
- Support for disk drive enclosures, as shown in the following figure,
is as follows:
- The server contains a SAS port.
- Support for PCIe storage enclosures, as shown in the following
figure, is as follows:
- The card installed in the C1 slot can contain two PCIe cable ports.
However, the C1 slot cannot provide both PCIe and 12X DDR cable ports.
- The card installed in the C8 slot can contain two PCIe cable ports.
However, the C8 slot cannot provide both PCIe and 12X DDR cable ports.
- The port card type installed in the C1 slot can differ from the
port card type installed in the C8 slot.
- The server contains a SAS port.
