CableCreation Mini SAS 36Pin SFF-8087 Male to 4 SATA 7Pin Female Reversed Cable 0.5M

SKU CH-BV04-VWPJE

Connects a mini SAS 36-pin backplane to four SATA host ports in a reversed 0.5 m cable

  • Reversed pin-out connects four SATA host ports to one Mini SAS target backplane
  • 5 metre length keeps signal paths short inside dense chassis
  • SFF-8087 36-pin male plugs directly into backplane SAS connector
  • Four SATA 7-pin female ends attach to motherboard or RAID controller ports
  • SAS interface supports high-throughput storage traffic for fast data access

Reversed Mini SAS to SATA Cable

This reversed cable connects a motherboard or RAID controller with SATA ports to a backplane using a Mini SAS 36Pin SFF-8087 interface. The four SATA 7Pin connectors act as the host side while the Mini SAS plug serves as the target. It is intended for builders wiring internal storage arrays where the controller presents SATA ports.

Straight-Through Pinout for Backplane Use

The 0.5 metre length keeps routing tidy inside a chassis and the 1.6 foot equivalent suits compact server builds. Because the pinout is reversed, the cable only works when the Mini SAS 36 SFF-8087 port resides on the backplane. If that port is on the motherboard or RAID controller instead, the cable will not function.

No Extra Software or Adapters Required

The bundle contains only the cable itself, so no drivers or configuration utilities are needed. Compatibility depends entirely on matching the host and target ends to the correct devices. Buyers who need a standard forward pinout or a longer reach should select a different cable.

Questions about this item

What does the SFF-8087 interface cap in practice?

The SFF-8087 connector links a backplane to four SATA host ports, so throughput is limited by the SATA revision of the attached controller and drives.

What clearance does the 0.5 m reversed cable need for routing?

At 0.5 m (1.6 ft) the cable is short, so the backplane and motherboard or RAID controller must be close enough for the four SATA plugs to reach without strain.

Which end plugs in first during installation?

Connect the four SATA 7-pin plugs to the motherboard or RAID controller host ports first, then attach the Mini SAS 36-pin SFF-8087 male end to the backplane target port.
