Abstract:
Provided is an apparatus and method for enabling interoperability between a serial attached small computer system interface (SAS) protocol with a peripheral component interconnect express (PCIe) protocol. A SAS-PCIe bridge includes a SAS component configured to communicate with a SAS device in a SAS domain and a PCIe component configured to communicate with a PCIe switch in a PCIe domain. The SAS component and the PCIe component are configured to convert data between the SAS protocol and the PCIe protocol.
