Proposed Cable Tables for SAS2 6Gbs Phy [McSorley] http://www.t10.org/ftp/t10/document.07/07-471r0.pdf No update last call. Asks Galen Fromm to help with review and possible update suggestions for 07-471. 2. Description of SSC profile allowed discontinuities. [Hernandez, Fortin] http://www.t10.org/ftp/t10/document.08/08-027r3.pdf http://www.t10.org/ftp/t10/document.08/08-032r0.pdf Discussed at length the jitter budget, math behind the residual SSC jitter after JTF, and whether limit values should be normative or informative. Rev 3 along with a separate proposal in a format updating the specification text were posted (links above). 3. SAS-2 Interconnect Signal-to-Noise Ratio Study [Olawsky] http://www.t10.org/ftp/t10/document.07/07-484r0.pdf 4. SAS-2 Receiver Device Physical Testing [Witt, Bari] http://www.t10.org/ftp/t10/document.07/07-486r1.pdf 5. Refine/provide status on simulation technology. [Jenkins, Newman] 6. SAS-2: Remove restrictions for SSC [Houlder, Cox] http://www.t10.org/ftp/t10/document.08/08-014r2.pdf Update posted at the link above. Although this text discusses an implementation-specific behavior, it is considered necessary as the subtleties in the specification that allow it do not make the impact of the implementation readily apparent. 7. SAS-2 6Gbps PHY specification [Cox] http://www.t10.org/ftp/t10/document.07/07-339r8.pdf Updates to references included. Please provide additional comments.
