Host-to-backplane connection
This CableCreation cable links a Mini SAS 36-pin (SFF-8087) male host port to four right-angle SATA 7-pin female connectors. It is built for internal storage arrays where a RAID controller or HBA drives multiple hard drives through a backplane. The 1.0 m length suits typical server and workstation chassis layouts.
Suits SAS/SATA backplane builds.
Installers wiring a controller to a hot-swap backplane will find the straight-to-angled layout convenient. Builders who need to connect individual drives directly to a motherboard or who require a different connector pitch should look at alternative cable types.
Mini SAS 36-pin (SFF-8087) male to four angle SATA
The single specification that determines compatibility is the Mini SAS 36-pin (SFF-8087) male host interface paired with four angled SATA 7-pin female target connectors. Verify that your controller presents an SFF-8087 port and that your backplane accepts standard SATA data plugs before purchasing.

Questions about this item
What connector does the 36-pin Mini SAS SFF-8087 male end plug into?
The 36-pin Mini SAS SFF-8087 male connector plugs into a SAS controller or host bus adapter that has a matching SFF-8087 port.
Which way round do the four angled SATA 7-pin female connectors go onto the drives?
Each angled SATA 7-pin female connector has an L-shaped key; align the key with the drive's SATA port so the cable runs parallel to the drive body.
How often should the 1.0 m cable be inspected or replaced in a server chassis?
Inspect the 1.0 m cable whenever the chassis is opened; replace it if the latch tabs are broken, the moulding is cracked or the conductors show corrosion.
