CableCreation Mini SAS SFF-8088 Male to Male Cable 1.0m

SKU CH-PYBP-FXGQW

A 1.0-metre Mini SAS SFF-8088 male-to-male cable carrying 26-pin SAS links at 3.0 Gbps for external storage connections

  • External 26-pin SFF-8088 connectors on both ends ensure a secure link
  • Release-ring plugs lock firmly to prevent accidental disconnection
  • 0 Gbps Mini SAS throughput supports high-speed storage arrays
  • 0 metre length suits typical rack-to-rack or enclosure runs
  • SAS interface maintains backwards compatibility with SATA devices

External Mini SAS 8088 cable 1.0 m

This CableCreation cable connects two external Mini SAS 26-pin SFF-8088 ports with male plugs on both ends. Each connector features a release ring for secure attachment. The assembly supports Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) at 3.0 Gigabits per second and maintains backward compatibility with SATA devices.

Storage arrays and server enclosures

The 1.0 metre length suits rack-mounted storage arrays, JBOD enclosures or server-to-server links that use external SFF-8088 interfaces. Builders working inside a chassis or needing internal SFF-8088 connectors cannot use this external assembly and must choose an internal cable instead.

26-pin SFF-8088 male connectors

Both ends carry identical 26-pin SFF-8088 male plugs, so the link only works when both devices present the same external Mini SAS port. Verify the port type on each unit before purchase.

Questions about this item

What controller or backplane must I already have to plug this 26-pin SFF-8088 male cable into?

You need a device with an external Mini SAS SFF-8088 female port such as a RAID controller, HBA or storage backplane that accepts a 26-pin plug with a release ring.

Will this 3.0 Gbps Mini SAS link work with the older SATA drives I plan to keep in the same enclosure?

Yes, the SAS interface is backwards compatible with SATA so the cable can carry traffic to SATA drives through a compatible backplane or expander.

How can I confirm the 1.0 m cable is delivering the rated 3.0 Gigabits per second after I connect it?

Check the link speed reported by your HBA or RAID utility; it should show a negotiated 3.0 Gbps Mini SAS connection with no errors.
