Questions about this item

Does the AEC-82885T include cables or brackets, or must they be purchased separately?

The card provides seven SFF-8643 ports and two SFF-8644 ports; cables for those connectors are not included. High and low-profile brackets are configurable, so the appropriate bracket is supplied.

Should I choose the seven SFF-8643 ports or the two SFF-8644 ports for my 12 Gb/s SAS links?

Use the seven SFF-8643 ports for internal drive backplanes and the two SFF-8644 ports for external enclosures; both connector types run at the full 12 Gb/s SAS rate.
