Internal to External SAS Cable

This BUCIER cable connects a 36-pin SFF-8643 internal port on a RAID controller to an SFF-8644 external port. It uses 12G rated cabling to support 12Gb/s SAS hard drives and SSDs. The 6.6ft length routes from the card out of the chassis directly to an external enclosure. One unit is included.

Suits 12Gb/s Controllers Not Internal Only Builds

The cable fits LSI 9380-8E and Areca ARC-1883X cards along with Adaptec and ATTO 12Gb/s controllers. It is built for linking internal ports to external JBOD or DAS units. Builders who need internal-to-internal links or a different connector standard should look at other options.

12G Rated 36-Pin SFF-8643 to SFF-8644

The single specification that decides fit is the 12G rating on a 36-pin SFF-8643 to SFF-8644 interface. This combination carries 12Gb/s SAS traffic between a compatible controller card and an external enclosure. Verify your card and enclosure use these exact connectors before ordering.

Questions about this item

Will the SFF-8643 or SFF-8644 connectors need periodic reseating or replacement?

The 36-pin SFF-8643 and SFF-8644 connectors are rated for the cable's service life and do not require scheduled reseating or replacement under normal use.

What is the maximum sustained throughput before the 12Gb/s SAS link becomes the bottleneck?

The 12Gb/s SAS interface supports up to 12 Gb/s per lane; the link itself is the first limit under sustained heavy I/O.

Does the cable generate noticeable heat or draw extra power when run continuously in a server enclosure?

The passive copper assembly carries signal only, so it adds no measurable heat or power draw during all-day operation.
