  • Supports up to 6 Gbps data transfer over SATA 22-pin connection
  • Gold-plated copper pins ensure reliable signal and power contacts

SATA 22-pin male-to-female extender

This SATA 22-pin male-to-female extender connects a 2.5" HDD, 2.5" SSD, 3.5" HDD or compatible 1.8" SSD and optical drives to a motherboard or backplane. It preserves the original port from repeated insertion cycles. The adapter supports data rates up to 6 Gbps. Gold-plated copper contacts and a PVC-moulded body provide durable connectivity.

Check drive connector and clearance

Verify that the target drive uses a combined 22-pin SATA interface (7-pin data plus 15-pin power) before ordering. The low-profile design with screw holes helps secure the adapter in tight bays. Ensure the host port can supply adequate power for the connected drive. This is not a SAS-to-SATA adapter and will not work with SAS-only equipment.

Suits port protection and tight spaces

Builders who want to shield a motherboard or backplane port from wear will find this extender useful. It also helps when a drive must sit in a confined bay where a straight cable would not fit. Users needing SAS connectivity, external eSATA cabling or a different pin arrangement should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and do I need any extra cables or power?

The package contains one SATA 22 pin male to female adapter; you must still provide power to the drive separately.

Which version suits a 2.5″ SSD versus a 3.5″ HDD?

The same 22 pin adapter works with both 2.5″ and 3.5″ drives as well as some 1.8″ SSDs and optical drives.

What does the 6 Gbps rating mean for my actual drive speed?

The adapter supports SATA 6 Gbps so it will not bottleneck a SATA III SSD or HDD connected through it.
