Cabling
A Serial ATA device is connected to a host through a direct connection or through a cable. For 
direct connection, the device plug connector, shown as (a) and (b) in 
is inserted directly 
into a host receptacle connector, illustrated as (g) in 
. The device plug connector and the 
host receptacle connector incorporate features that enable the direct connection to be hot pluggable 
and blind mateable.
