50cm Mini SAS SFF8087 36Pin to SFF8482 29Pin fanout cable with IDE power connector

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK 50cm Mini SAS SFF8087 36Pin to SFF8482 29Pin Fanout Cable with IDE Power

SKU CH-588J-N8YEW

Connects a Mini SAS 36-pin host to four 29-pin SAS drives with integrated IDE power over a 50cm shielded harness

  • Converts SFF8087 36pin host to SFF8482 29pin SAS target for direct drive attachment
  • Integrated IDE power connector supplies drives directly, reducing internal cable clutter
  • 50cm length fits standard rackmount servers and multi-drive NAS chassis routing
  • High-speed shielded harness maintains reliable SAS data integrity for RAID arrays
  • Server-grade construction ensures durable plug-and-play operation in enterprise storage environments

SFF-8087 to SFF-8482 fanout cable

This new SMUGDESK internal cable converts a 36pin Mini SAS SFF-8087 host port into four 29pin SFF-8482 target connectors for SAS hard disks. An integrated IDE power connector supplies drive power directly from the harness, reducing separate wiring inside the chassis. The 50cm length suits medium-distance routing in standard rackmount servers and multi-drive NAS systems. Shielded construction supports reliable SAS data transmission for RAID arrays and storage backplanes.

Suits SAS drive arrays with IDE power

Builders connecting SFF-8482 SAS HDDs or SSDs to a Mini SAS controller while drawing power from an IDE header will find the pinout and reach matched to that task. Server integrators populating backplanes or direct-attached RAID enclosures gain a single-cable solution for both data and power. Teams needing a different target connector, a longer trunk run or a pure data cable without the integrated power lead should look at other cable types.

SFF-8482 29pin target interface

The cable terminates in four SFF-8482 29pin plugs, so every drive bay must accept that specific SAS target connector. If the drives or backplane use a different interface, the harness will not mate. Verify the target side before ordering.

Questions about this item

Will the 50cm SFF8087 36pin fanout reach my SAS drives in a 4U server chassis?

The 50cm length is designed for medium-distance routing in standard rackmount servers, providing enough slack for typical 4U drive cage layouts without excess cable bulk.

How can I verify the SFF8482 29pin connections are seated correctly after installation?

Each SFF8482 29pin connector clicks firmly into the SAS drive port; check that all four fanout ends are fully latched and the RAID controller detects every drive at boot.

Does the package include the IDE power cables for the drives, or only the fanout cable itself?

The cable has an integrated IDE power connector; you still need a standard 4-pin Molex lead from your power supply to feed that connector.
