SMUGDESK 2 Pack .5M 1.6FT SFF-8087 Mini SAS to 4 SATA Forward Breakout Cable

SKU CH-M0E3-HSDFN

A 2-pack of .5 m SFF-8087 Mini SAS to 4 SATA forward breakout cables with double-layer shielding for stable server storage expansion

  • Splits one SAS port into four SATA drives via SFF-8087 Mini SAS connector
  • 5 meter length keeps internal server cabling tidy and organised
  • Forward breakout wiring ensures correct drive detection and RAID array setup
  • Double-layer foil and braid shielding cuts EMI for stable 24-hour data transfer
  • Two-cable pack covers dual-controller builds or provides a ready spare

Dual SFF-8087 to SATA Breakout Kit

This kit provides two 0.5-metre forward breakout cables, each converting a single SFF-8087 Mini SAS male connector into four standard SATA female ports. It is built for administrators expanding internal storage on SAS RAID controllers or HBA cards inside rack-mounted servers and NAS enclosures. Double-layer aluminium foil and braided shielding protect signal integrity in dense, electrically noisy chassis. The pair covers dual-controller wiring or keeps a spare on hand for maintenance.

Suited for four-drive arrays on one port

Installers who need to connect up to four SATA hard drives or SSDs to a single SAS controller port will find the pin-out matches standard forward breakout wiring for immediate drive recognition and RAID configuration. The short 1.6-foot length keeps cable routing tidy inside crowded drive cages and backplanes. Builders requiring longer runs between controller and backplane, or those needing reverse breakout pin-outs for specific backplane models, should verify compatibility before ordering.

One SFF-8087 port fans out to four SATA

Each cable terminates in one SFF-8087 Mini SAS connector that splits directly into four independent SATA channels, enabling a single controller port to manage four drives simultaneously. The forward breakout wiring follows the industry-standard definition so drives identify correctly without signal reversal. This 2-pack uses 0.5-metre lengths designed for internal server storage wiring where space is limited and EMI shielding is critical.

Questions about this item

What SAS controller or HBA do I need to plug this SFF-8087 cable into?

You need a RAID controller or HBA that provides an SFF-8087 Mini SAS port; the cable’s forward breakout design connects that single port to four SATA drives.

Will this cable work with the SATA hard drives and SSDs I already have installed?

Yes, the forward breakout wiring supports normal identification and RAID array configuration of mechanical hard drives and SATA SSDs without signal reversal issues.

How can I confirm the cable is transmitting data reliably after installation?

Stable long-term data transmission is indicated by the drives being recognised consistently, RAID arrays building without errors, and no packet loss or speed drops during continuous heavy workloads.
