Innocard SFF-TA-1016 PCIe 5.0 cable

This Innocard cable adapts a PCIe 5.0 MCIO 38-pin connector to a U.3 SFF-8639 interface over a 100cm length. It serves builders connecting U.3 storage devices to compatible MCIO host ports in workstation or server chassis. The assembly is designed and manufactured in Taiwan under part number GHC38-1954.

Passive thermals and power delivery

As a passive cable assembly, it generates no operational noise and adds no active thermal load to the system. Power for attached U.3 drives is conveyed through the SFF-8639 connector from the host backplane or controller. Signal integrity is maintained for PCIe 5.0 speeds across the full 100cm run without external power.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the 38-pin MCIO end and the U.3 SFF-8639 end of this 100 cm cable?

Plug the MCIO 38P connector into the PCIe 5.0 slot on the motherboard or backplane, then insert the U.3 (SFF-8639) connector into the drive bay; the keyed shapes prevent upside-down insertion.

What wear should I expect on the MCIO 38P and U.3 SFF-8639 connectors over time?

Repeated mating cycles can loosen the latch springs; inspect both connectors for bent pins or cracked housings and replace the cable if retention feels weak.
