Note: 6 Gbps and 12 Gbps cards are not interchangeable between the server generations. 13G and 14G
servers only support 12 Gbps SAS adapters.
Note: IBM support for a SAS interposer/fan-out cable is mentioned in the ML3 users guide; Chapter 3 Page
51. As a convenience we are including the comment from that section as well as the part numbers here.
The fan out cables are sold by ATTO and are available through our S&P org.

CBL-8078-EX1 (3M) AA837910
Excerpt from ML3 users guide: If you are using a SAS fanout / Interposer cable, the end of the cable with only
one connector must be plugged into the HBA.
