INTRODUCTION

1.1 OWC JUPITER OVERVIEW

1.1.1 Jupiter

Whether you’re an entrepreneur, IT manager, ﬁve-person design ﬁrm, or Hollywood studio, OWC Jupiter is the

perfect high-speed scalable storage solution that can grow and adapt to ever-increasing storage needs.

With Jupiter, users can now combine the highest levels of data sharing performance with the simplicity of direct

attached storage (DAS) and achieve speeds 6x faster than traditional SAN technologies. Jupiter is also easy on the

budget at a fraction of the cost of traditional SAN technologies.

1.1.2 Jupiter Family

Storage

When it comes to storage, Jupiter truly lives up to its namesake’s stature. Start with just an 8TB rack, and with its

scalability, Jupiter can be built with expander units and switches to accommodate up to 3600TB (3.6 Petabytes).

You can also utilize SSDs or hard drives to best ﬁt your storage needs. Jupiter is available as a standalone storage

solution, and as a RAID storage subsystem that supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and JBOD.

Connectivity

With Jupiter, get ready for speeds that are out of this world. Simply install the low proﬁle, two-port Jupiter

mini-SAS PCIe Card into any computer, workstation or server that accepts PCIe cards to experience the extreme

performance beneﬁts of OWC Jupiter mini-SAS enterprise-class storage. Use a single mini-SAS connection for up

to 24Gbp/s or use both connections for up to 48Gbp/s performance.

Switches

Need to expand? Connect multiple Jupiter storage systems with the powerful enterprise-class switch – available

with 8 or 16 ports. Jupiter switches feature an expansion mini-SAS port and can seamlessly integrate within an

existing Fibre infrastructure. Jupiter switches have six mini-SAS connections to connect multiple Jupiter storage

systems in a variety of ways and two host mini-SAS Connections allow you to connect to a single host system to

get peak performance.

1 - Power Supply Unit (PSU) Modules

The Jupiter Expander Rack 835 has two externaly mounted redundant

and hot-swappable power supply unit (PSU) modules for increased

reliability and easy serviceability. When both modules are functioning

properly, they automatically balance the load of the entire Jupiter unit.

2 - Data Connections

The Jupiter Expander Rack 835 has two external mini-SAS (SFF-8088)

data connections. Each connection carries four SAS 6Gb/s data channels

through it. Either connection can function as a host link or an expansion

link, though one must always be a host link.

3 - Fan Modules

The Jupiter Expander Rack 835 has two externaly mounted swappable

fan modules for easy serviceablity.

4 - Power Switch

The Jupiter Expander Rack 835 has a rear mounted and easily

accessible power switch.

5 - Top Cover Thumbscrew

This screw must be loosened in order to remove the top cover for

servicing.

6 - Service Port

The Jupiter Expander Rack 835 has an RS-232 serial port for service.

This port is generally not used as all service tasks can be done via the

Jupiter Command Center application.

2.1 RAIL INSTALLATION

The Jupiter Expander Rack 835 storage system comes with rack mount slide rails attached to the sides of the unit

and the necessary screws and cage nuts for installing into 4-post square-hole rack systems. To install the slide rail

brackets into your rack, do the following:

1. The Jupiter Expander Rack 835 requires two

rack units of space, take note of which units

on your rack that you will install Jupiter into.

2. Install the included cage nuts into your rack

using Figure 2.1a as a guide for cage nut

placement within the 2U's that have been

designated for Jupiter.

3. On the Jupiter unit, remove the securing

screw from the rail on the left and right sides

as seen in Figure 2.1b.

4. Once the securing screws have been

removed, remove the rail arm from the Jupiter

unit by sliding it toward the rear of the unit as

seen in Figure 2.1c. When the rail arm stops,

push the release tab while continuing to slide

the rail arm oﬀ. After removing the rails, set

them aside taking note of the side from which

they were removed.

5. Remove the rail arm extensions from the

accessories box and match them to the

rails. Use Figure 2.1d as a guide for proper

matching of rails and the extension pieces.
