CableCreation Mini SAS HD SFF-8643 Cable 3.3FT

SKU CH-GM20-ZWAMQ

Connects internal SAS devices with SFF-8643 ports at up to 12 Gb/s over 3.3 ft

  • Supports 12 Gb/s SAS 3.0 speeds
  • 36-pin high-density SFF-8643 connectors
  • Compact design enables higher port density
  • Backward compatible with SAS 2.1 at 6 Gb/s
  • 3 ft length for internal chassis routing

Internal SAS cable for 12 Gb/s links

This CableCreation cable carries Mini SAS HD SFF-8643 connectors on both ends and measures 3.3 FT. It is built for SAS 2.1 at 6 Gb/s and SAS 3.0 at 12 Gb/s, so it suits new server or workstation backplanes that use the high-density 36-pin interface.

Suits builders wiring SAS 3.0 backplanes

The cable matches controllers and drives that expose SFF-8643 ports. It does not fit older Mini SAS or legacy SATA connectors, so systems that still use those interfaces need a different cable.

Dual-end SFF-8643 with 36-pin high-density layout

The single decisive spec is the SFF-8643 connector on both ends, which carries four lanes of 12 Gb/s SAS traffic. Verify that your controller and backplane both present this exact port before ordering.

The package includes one CableCreation 3.3FT Mini SAS SFF-8643 cable and no additional accessories or adapters.

Should I choose this cable for a 6Gb/s or 12Gb/s SAS link?

What does the 12Gb/s rating mean when the cable is installed in a server?

The 12Gb/s rating indicates the cable can carry four lanes of SAS 3.0 traffic at full speed between compatible host and drive backplanes.
