16-port SAS HBA Provides Maximum Connectivity and Performance for

External JBOD and External RAID enclosures

Overview

The Avago SAS 9302-16e 16-port, 12Gb/s SAS host bus adapter (HBA) provides increased

connectivity and high performance for high-end servers and storage applications. The SAS 9302-16e

HBA is based on the Avago SAS 3008 IO controller that integrates the latest enhancements in SAS

and PCI Express technology and can achieve 2.8 million IOPS.

The Avago SAS 9302-16e has four (x4) external mini SAS HD connectors (SFF8644) and supports

16 PCI Express lanes that comply with the latest PCI Express 3.0 specication with 8Gb/s per lane in

a single direction. The HBA also supports 16 individual SAS ports operating at 12Gb/s. The HBA is

backward compatible with previous PCIe and SAS generations through automatic negotiation and

provides SAS data transfer rates of 12, 6, and 3Gb/s per lane, and SATA data transfer rates at 6 and

3Gb/s per lane. Avago provides a complete suite of industry standard operating system drivers.

Avago Storage by LSI™

Avago Technologies products serve four primary target markets: wireless communications, wired

infrastructure, enterprise storage, and industrial. Avago Storage by LSI oers the industry’s broadest

portfolio of storage solutions, backed by decades of experience and trusted by the world’s leading

server and storage suppliers. Avago provides the building blocks for storage solutions that help

customers understand, prioritize, store and protect critical data.

The Avago 12Gb/s SAS portfolio includes MegaRAID® controller cards, HBAs, advanced software

options, Syncro® shared DAS solutions and SAS storage ICs, including RAID-on-Chip (ROCs), I/O

controllers and expanders.

Fusion-MPT™ Architecture

The Avago SAS HBAs are based on the Fusion-MPT architected SAS controllers, which implements

the Fusion-MPT (Message Passing Technology) architecture. Each controller features embedded

PowerPC™ processors that help deliver maximum host CPU ooad. The built-in intelligence

enables Avago to publish a single binary OS driver to operate any Fusion-MPT controller or adapter.

This architecture helps enable high performance, reduced software development, and faster time

to market.
