SMUGDESK 100cm PCIe 5.0 MCIO 74Pin 8X to Dual SFF-8643 36Pin 8X SAS Cable

SKU CH-SX2E-TDQNJ

A 100 cm PCIe 5.0 cable splits one MCIO 74Pin 8X port into two SFF-8643 36Pin 8X channels for SAS and NVMe storage

  • PCIe 5.0 compliance keeps full bandwidth intact
  • One MCIO 74Pin 8X splits to dual SFF-8643 8X channels
  • 100cm length fits large chassis and eases routing
  • Gold-plated pins with shielding cut signal loss and EMI
  • Built for server backplane, RAID card and NVMe SSD arrays

PCIe 5.0 MCIO 74Pin 8X Breakout Cable

This 100cm cable converts a single MCIO 74Pin 8X male connector into two SFF-8643 36Pin 8X Mini SAS HD interfaces. It is built to PCIe 5.0 specifications for full-rate data transmission in server and storage environments. Gold-plated contacts and multi-layer shielding protect signal integrity during ultra-high-speed operation. The extended length suits large chassis and complex internal routing requirements.

Suited for PCIe 5.0 Host Controllers and RAID Cards

This cable serves administrators linking PCIe 5.0 host controllers, RAID expansion cards, or NVMe backplanes to dual Mini SAS HD endpoints. It fits JBOD enclosures and distributed storage devices needing a 100cm reach. Builders requiring a different connector pin count, a shorter or longer run, or a non-breakout topology should select an alternative cable.

MCIO 74Pin 8X to Dual SFF-8643 36Pin 8X Split

The decisive specification is the single MCIO 74Pin 8X input splitting into two independent SFF-8643 36Pin 8X outputs. This fixed breakout geometry determines whether the cable matches the host controller port and the target backplane or enclosure interfaces. Verify both ends against your hardware before purchase.

Questions about this item

What connectors are on the 100cm cable and do I need any extra adapters?

The cable has one MCIO 74Pin 8X male connector on one end and two SFF-8643 Mini SAS HD 36Pin 8X male connectors on the other. No extra adapters are required for a direct link between an MCIO 8X port and two Mini SAS HD 8X ports.

The listing shows a single 8X breakout into dual 8X Mini SAS HD — is that the only version available?

Yes, the product is a single fixed assembly: one MCIO 74Pin 8X side splits into two SFF-8643 36Pin 8X sides, both running at PCIe 5.0 speed. No other lane-count or length variants are offered for this model.

Will the PCIe 5.0 rating actually hold at the full 100cm length inside a server?

The cable is built to PCIe 5.0 specifications with multi-layer shielding and gold-plated pins, so it maintains full 5.0 bandwidth across the entire 100cm run without speed reduction when connecting a RAID card, NVMe backplane or JBOD enclosure.
