Fervit Mini SAS HD SFF8644 to Mini SAS SFF8088 Hybrid Cable 1M/3.3ft

SKU CH-RGW4-M82NQ

Hybrid cable links SFF8644 Mini SAS HD to SFF8088 Mini SAS for 6Gbps server-to-storage connections

  • Connects SFF8644 and SFF8088 ports for mixed-hardware compatibility
  • Delivers stable 6Gbps SAS transfer for JBOD and RAID arrays
  • Shielded external-grade jacket resists interference in data-centre environments
  • 1 metre length allows flexible routing between servers and enclosures
  • Premium hybrid design bridges Mini SAS HD and Mini SAS interfaces

SFF8644 to SFF8088 hybrid cable

This Fervit cable connects Mini SAS HD SFF8644 ports to Mini SAS SFF8088 ports. It is built for server-to-storage links where the two ends use different connector generations. The one-metre length gives flexibility when routing between a host and an external enclosure. Shielding on the jacket helps maintain signal quality in dense racks.

Suits mixed-port JBOD and RAID expansion

Storage teams adding a shelf that only offers SFF8088 to a controller with SFF8644 will use this cable. It also fits technicians who need a single spare for cross-interface troubleshooting. It will not help installers who need SFF8644-to-SFF8644 or SFF8088-to-SFF8088 links, nor teams deploying faster SAS topologies.

6 Gbps SAS data rate

The cable is rated for stable 6 Gbps SAS transfer, which sets the ceiling for JBOD and RAID array performance. If the controller or backplane negotiates a higher rate, this link will become the bottleneck. Verify the required throughput before committing to this part.

Questions about this item

Will the 6Gbps SAS link on the SFF-8644 end negotiate down to 3Gbps if I connect it to an older SFF-8088 HBA?

Yes, the cable carries the standard SAS signalling so the host and target will auto-negotiate to the highest speed both support, including 3Gbps on legacy controllers.

How can I verify the hybrid cable is passing data at full 6Gbps after I plug it into my JBOD enclosure?

Check the HBA or RAID controller BIOS and the enclosure management software for a reported link speed of 6Gbps on each phy; run a sustained read/write test and confirm throughput matches the 6Gbps lane rate.

Does the 1m cable ship with any brackets, screws or additional adapters, or is it just the cable itself?

Only the hybrid cable with SFF-8644 and SFF-8088 connectors is included; mounting hardware and any port adapters must be sourced separately.
