LetLinkSo MCIO x16 Cable 148-Pin Male to Male 50 cm

SKU CH-KPQY-M2J97

A 50 cm MCIO x16 cable linking two 148-pin male connectors at 32 GT/s per lane over 16 lanes

  • TypeMCIO x16 Cable
  • ColorBlack
  • Length1.6 feet (50 cm)
  • Connector Number2
  • Connector DetailStraight MCIOx16 (SFF-TA-1016) to Straight MCIOx16 (SFF-TA-1
  • Terminal GenderMale to Male

Pin Number 148-Pin

  • PCIe 5.0 delivers 512 Gbps over 16 lanes
  • 50 cm length fits high-density server racks
  • Shielded copper conductors preserve signal integrity at 32 GT/s
  • SAS 4.0 and PCIe 5.0 protocols supported
  • 148-pin male-to-male connectors built for durability

Enterprise Interconnect Cable

The LetLinkSo MCIO x16 cable provides a 50 cm male-to-male link rated for PCIe 5.0 at 32 GT/s per lane across 16 lanes. It targets data-centre technicians and system integrators who need a compact, shielded copper assembly for high-density server racks and storage arrays.

Bandwidth and Protocol Limits

The SFF-TA-1016 interface supports 512 Gbps aggregate throughput and carries SAS 4.0 alongside PCIe 5.0 traffic. Signal fidelity is maintained by the shielded construction, but the 50 cm length fixes the maximum reach between paired devices.

Deciding Specification

The single specification that determines fit is the straight 148-pin MCIO x16 connector on both ends; only equipment exposing that exact port can use this cable. Builders needing a different pin count, right-angle orientation or longer run must select another part.

Questions about this item

How do I pick the right MCIO x16 cable length for my server rack?

This cable is 50 cm (1.6 feet) with straight 148-pin male connectors on both ends, suited for short intra-chassis links in dense 16-lane layouts.

What does 32 GT/s per lane mean for actual throughput in a PCIe 5.0 system?

Sixteen lanes at 32 GT/s give a 512 Gbps aggregate ceiling; real-world throughput depends on endpoint negotiation and protocol overhead.

Which SAS standard does the SFF-TA-1016 interface support on this cable?

The SFF-TA-1016 connector carries SAS 4.0 and PCIe 5.0 signals across 16 lanes, limited by the slowest linked device.
