From my understanding I connect A0 and B0 or A1 and B1? Am I correct or do I need all four? Using SAS 8643 to SAS 8643.

Depends how many disks you need to use. Each 8643 cable carries 4 channels, so presumably your backplane supports 16 disks. If you want to use them all, you need all four cables.
