BUCIER SFF-8087 to 4× SFF-8482 SAS breakout cable .5 m with SATA power

SFF-8087 to four SFF-8482 breakout

This BUCIER cable connects a Mini-SAS SFF-8087 port on a RAID controller or motherboard to four SATA hard drives. Each of the four SFF-8482 connectors carries both data and a 15-pin SATA power connection. The assembly is .5 m long and wrapped in a nylon braid that keeps the four leads tidy inside tight cases. It is built for professionals and DIY builders who need to attach SATA drives to a Mini-SAS host port.

Replaces loose fan-out cables and backplane wiring

The breakout design eliminates the need for separate data and power runs to each drive, reducing clutter and installation time. It is the right choice when a controller has a single SFF-8087 port and the target drives are standard SATA units that require their own power connectors. The jump is worth it when you want a labelled, pre-braided loom that simplifies routing and avoids the signal issues that arise from plugging the SFF-8087 end into a backplane.

Handles four SATA drives at 6 Gb/s per lane

Each SFF-8482 leg delivers a 29-pin data and power interface rated for 6 Gb/s transfer rates, giving full SATA III bandwidth to every attached disk. The cable will not work with SAS drives, and the SFF-8087 end must connect to a controller or motherboard port, not a backplane. Headroom ends at four drives; any build needing more devices or SAS-native targets requires a different interconnect solution.
