Figure 25. SAS 6Gbs Bridge Board Overview
This bridge board passes all electrical connectivity through a 2x40pin card edge hot swap
interconnect between compute node/SAS RAID card and chassis backplane. The bridge board
passes the follow features (per compute node) to the backplane of the server:
4x 6Gb SAS/SATA signals through Mini SAS port to HSBP drives.
Two x4 lane 6Gb SAS/SATA re-drivers.
Four chassis ID signals to determine the physical location of the compute node.
One SGPIO SFF-8485 interface to the HSBP microcontroller.
5V_AUX power generated on HSBP and provided to the compute node.
3.3V power generated on HSBP and provided to bridge board to run SAS/SATA re-
drivers.
Global PMBus* alert signal for CLST support.
Four SMBus* interfaces:
o SMBUS R1 - For chassis temp sensor and chassis FRU EEPROM device.
o SMBUS R5 - Connectivity for up to two HSBP controllers and one shared 12V
current monitoring device.
o SMBUS R7 - Connectivity to up to two common redundant power supply (CRPS)
module PMBus*.
o IPMB - For OEM requirement not used on EPSD HW servers.
o Front panel button signals: Power, reset, NMI, and ID.
o Front panel LEDs signals: Power, fault, status, fabric activity, ID, HDD activity.
