BONAEVER SFF-8087 to 4x SFF-8482 SAS cable .5 m

SKU CH-5FB1-FBQGE

A 0.5 m Mini-SAS SFF-8087 to four SFF-8482 breakout cable with integrated 15-pin SATA power connectors for SATA drives

Length 1.64 ft. (0.5m)

  • Connect RAID controllers with .5 m SFF-8087 mini-SAS link
  • Power four SATA drives via 15-pin SATA connectors on each breakout
  • Achieve 6 Gb/s throughput on SFF-8087 to SFF-8482 channels
  • Nylon-braided ribbon bundles four labelled cables for tidy routing
  • Latching 36-pin to 29-pin plugs secure connections in tight cases

Breakout Cable for RAID Controllers

This BONAEVER cable connects a Mini SAS SFF-8087 port on a RAID or PCIe controller to four SATA hard drives. Each of the four breakout ends carries a 29-pin SAS connector and a 15-pin SATA power connector. The .5 m length suits compact chassis and the nylon braid keeps the four leads tidy.

Interface Limits and Constraints

The assembly supports 6 Gb/s data rates over the SAS interface but will not operate with SAS drives. The SFF-8087 end must plug into a controller, not a backplane. A SATA power lead from the PSU is required at every breakout connector for the attached drives to spin up.

Replaces Loose Adapter Stacks

It replaces a clutter of individual forward breakout cables and separate power splitters. The labelled P1-P4 leads simplify routing in tight builds. The jump is worthwhile when a single controller port must serve four SATA disks and cable management matters.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 0.5 m length or a longer cable for my build?

The 0.5 m length suits tight chassis and short runs between a RAID controller and nearby drive bays; choose a longer cable only if the controller sits farther from the drives.

What does the 6 Gb/s headline rate deliver in an actual system?

It provides up to 6 Gb/s per lane for SATA drives attached to the four SFF-8482 connectors, limited by the drive and controller capabilities.

How does the SFF-8087 interface affect compatibility?

The 36-pin SFF-8087 plug connects to internal RAID or PCIe controllers; it must not be used on a backplane, and the cable only supports SATA drives, not SAS drives.
