Internal SCSI Cabling
The Netfinity 7100 contains a DASD backplane supporting ten hot-swap, SCA-2 compliant drive bays. The backplane is connected to Channel B of the integrated dual-channel,
Wide Ultra2 SCSI controller through a 16-bit LVD SCSI cable. Channel A only supports external SCSI attachment and is cabled directly to the external 0.8mm VHDCI SCSI
connector. To support devices in the internal 133/89-mm (5.25/3.5-inch) half-high bays, a two-drop, 16-bit LVD SCSI cable with integrated terminator is included with the server.
This cable can be used to connect to an optional SCSI adapter or, in the case of RAID configurations where the backplane cable is attached to an optional RAID adapter, it can be
connected to the Channel B connector.

1. Netfinity 7100 contains an Ultra2 hot-swap backplane which limits Ultra160 HDDs to Ultra2 bus speeds.
2. Not supported by the onboard external SCSI port. Select an optional SCSI controller then refer to Appendix D: Cables-
Storage Units-Controllers to confirm the controller supports the desired External Storage Expansion Unit and to select a
supported cable. For HDD or other expansion unit options, see the specific expansion unit section.
3. The EXP300 includes a single 2 M Ultra2 SCSI cable and dual hot-swap 500 W power supplies, each with it’s own standard
country power cord. To convert an EXP300 to a tower form factor, EXP300 Rack-to-Tower Conversion Kit P/N 09N7296 is
required.
4. The FAStT200 Storage Server and HA Storage Server each include two hot-swap, 350 W auto-ranging redundant power
supplies each with it’s own standard country power cord.
5. Can be upgraded to a FAStT200 HA Storage Server through the addition of a FAStT200 Redundant RAID Controller P/N
19K1121.
6. The FAStT EXP500 Storage Expansion Unit includes dual hot-swap 350 W power supplies, each with it’s own standard
country power cord..
7. These units do not include Rack Power Cables P/N 94G7448 when shipped (for attachment to high voltage UPS or PDU).
Standard country power cords only are included. If required, order Rack Power Cables according to the number of power
supplies.
