SATACables SS-AZX20MPSS SATA Male to Female Extension Cable 20 inch
A 20-inch male-to-female extension cable for internal SATA data connections
- Cable Length1.66 ft.
- Extends internal SATA cables by 1.66 ft for flexible drive placement
- Male-to-female connectors link existing cables without adapters
- Supports 150, 300 and 600 MB/s SATA speeds
- Gold-plated contacts with 15u plating resist corrosion
- Shielded 26 AWG conductors meet 100 ohm impedance spec
Product identity
This 20 inch SATA male-to-female extension cable carries 7-pin internal SATA signals and supports SATA I, II and III speeds of 150, 300 and 600 MB/s. It is intended for technicians, service centres and builders who need extra reach when routing data cables inside a chassis.
Thermals, noise and power
The cable is passive and adds no active cooling, fan noise or power draw to the system. Its conductors are 26 AWG solid tinned copper with 28 AWG drain wires, wrapped in aluminum Mylar shielding and a PVC jacket rated to 80 degrees Celsius.
Bundled value
No software, adapters or mounting hardware are included; the product consists solely of the extension cable itself. The gold-plated contacts and impedance-controlled design preserve signal integrity at up to 4500 MHz, but the cable does not convert interfaces or add ports beyond the single male-to-female connection.

Questions about this item
How do I install the SS-AZX20MPSS 20 inch SATA male-to-female extension, and what step do people get wrong?
Connect the male end to the motherboard or controller SATA port, then plug the existing drive cable into the female end; the common mistake is reversing the ends, which leaves the drive unpowered because the male connector must face the host.
What maintenance or replacement will the SS-AZX20MPSS cable need later?
The 26 AWG solid tinned copper conductors and 15 µ gold-plated contacts are rated for 80 °C continuous operation; inspect the PVC jacket and shielding for cracking or kinks after repeated drive swaps and replace the cable if the jacket is damaged.
What limit shows up first on the SS-AZX20MPSS under sustained heavy transfers?
The 100 ± 15 ohm impedance and 6 dB maximum attenuation from 10 MHz to 4500 MHz set the signal-integrity ceiling; beyond the 1.66 ft length the eye diagram closes, so sustained 600 MB/s traffic is the practical ceiling before errors rise.
