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. Netfinity EXP200 includes a single 2 M Ultra2 SCSI cable and a single hot-swap 350 W power supply. Optional hot-
swap Netfinity EXP200 350W Power Supply (P/N 37L0xxx) provides redundancy. To convert an EXP200 to a tower form
factor, Netfinity EXP200 Rack-to-Tower Conversion Kit (P/N 37L5857) is required.
4. EXP300 includes a single 2 M Ultra2 SCSI cable and dual hot-swap 500 W power supplies. To convert an EXP300 to a
