2-metre SFF-8088 SAS cable

This 2-metre passive cable carries two SFF-8088 universal-key connectors for external SAS links. It supports 6 Gb/s per channel and complies with the SAS 1.1 and 2.0 specifications. The assembly uses 8-pair construction with 30, 28, 26 and 24 AWG wire and 100 Ohm impedance. It suits servers, RAID enclosures and direct-attached storage.

Passive copper with multi-gauge wiring

The cable requires no external power and relies on its mixed 30, 28, 26 and 24 AWG conductors to maintain signal integrity at 6 Gb/s. Universal-key plugs fit standard SFF-8088 ports on HBAs, RAID controllers and external storage shelves. Length is fixed at 2 metres so cable routing must accommodate that exact reach.

Check port keying and channel count

Verify that both ends of your link use SFF-8088 universal-key receptacles before ordering. Confirm your HBA or controller exposes the required number of 6 Gb/s channels for the target enclosure. The cable carries SAS and SATA protocols but does not convert between different external connector types.

Questions about this item

Will the SFF-8088 connectors need periodic re-seating or replacement over time?

The cable uses passive copper construction with SFF-8088 universal-key connectors rated for 6 Gb/s per channel; no active components or wear items require scheduled maintenance.

What limits throughput first during sustained 6 Gb/s transfers?

The 2-metre passive copper assembly operates at the SAS 2.0 6 Gb/s per channel ceiling; signal integrity at this length is the practical bottleneck.

How much heat or power does the cable add when running all day in a RAID array?

As a passive 30/28/26/24 AWG copper cable with 100 Ohm impedance, it draws no external power and generates negligible heat during continuous operation.
