ProLiant ML570 Generation 4 Server Cabling Matrix

This matrix provides information on cables required to connect internal and external SCSI, SAS or USB options.
The ML570 G4 includes one Serial-Attached SCSI (SAS) cable for the connection of the system hard drives. To connect a tape drive
or external SCSI device, a second SCSI cable is required (included with tape drive). A USB cable can be used for some internal tape drives, as well. These
SCSI or USB cables are often contained in the kit for the option. Use this matrix to identify any additional cables that may be required.
