Blue SFF-8482 SAS to SATA adapter cable with Molex power connector, 2.3ft length

Aomoproing

Aomoproing SFF-8482 SAS to SATA Adapter Cable 2.3ft 2 packs

SKU CH-3SSV-3N3JD

Connects a SAS drive to a SAS-compatible SATA controller at 6 Gbps with 2.3 ft cable and 7 inch Molex power

Pack 2 packs

  • Connect SAS drives to SATA controllers with SFF-8482 adapter
  • Includes Molex 4-pin power cable for drive operation
  • Supports SATA III 6 Gbps data transfer speed
  • 3 ft cable length offers flexible routing
  • Works with both SAS and SATA hard drives

SAS-to-SATA adapter for compatible controllers

This cable connects a SAS drive with an SFF-8482 interface to a SATA port on a motherboard or RAID controller that explicitly supports SAS devices. It also functions as a standard SATA data and power cable for regular SATA hard drives. The 2.3 ft length provides flexibility for internal routing in servers or workstations.

Requires a SAS-compatible SATA controller

The single specification that determines compatibility is the host controller: it must be a SATA port that also accepts SAS drives. A standard SATA-only controller will not recognise the SAS drive through this adapter. Data transfer operates at up to 6 Gbps when the controller and drive negotiate that speed.

Simple internal connection with a short power lead

Installation is a direct plug of the SFF-8482 end into the drive and the SATA 7-pin end into the controller, plus the included 7-inch Molex 4-pin lead to the power supply. The short power cable can limit placement options in larger chassis, so verify the Molex reach before routing.

Questions about this item

Will a SAS drive connected through this adapter run at the full 6 Gbps SATA III speed?

The cable supports up to 6 Gbps, but the drive must negotiate that link speed with a SAS-compatible SATA controller.

Does the SFF-8482 connector require a specific SAS-capable SATA controller on the motherboard?

Yes, the host SATA port must be on a controller that explicitly supports SAS drives; a standard SATA-only port will not recognise the drive.

What clearance is needed for the 7 inch Molex power lead when routing it to the drive?

The power cable is 7 inches long, so allow enough space from the drive's Molex socket to the nearest power supply connector.
