SMUGDESK 50cm Slimline SAS 4.0 Cable SFF-8654 8i 74Pin Male to Male

SKU CH-20K1-6KWMA

Slimline SAS 4.0 cable with SFF-8654 74-pin male connectors links RAID or HBA controllers to NVMe SSD backplanes at 24 Gbps per lane

  • 24 Gbps per lane bandwidth for NVMe SSD performance
  • 50 cm length reduces internal clutter and improves airflow
  • SFF-8654 74-pin locking connectors prevent vibration disconnects
  • Multi-layer shielding maintains signal integrity under continuous load
  • Compatible with RAID HBA cards and U.2 NVMe backplanes

50 cm Slimline SAS 4.0 Cable

This 50 cm enterprise-grade cable uses SFF-8654 8i 74Pin male connectors on both ends to link RAID or HBA controllers with NVMe U.2 backplanes or JBOD enclosures. It is built for data-centre and server-cluster storage expansion where reliable 24 Gbps per lane throughput is required.

Replaces loose or unshielded SAS links

The locking buckle design on each connector prevents accidental disconnection from vibration, while the fixed 50 cm length removes coiled slack that blocks airflow. Upgrade when existing cables lack PCIe 4.0 and SAS 4.0 compliance, cause packet loss under heavy workloads, or cannot sustain 24 Gbps signalling.

Check connector type and clearance

Verify that both the controller and the backplane or enclosure present SFF-8654 8i ports before ordering. Ensure the 50 cm reach suits your chassis layout and that no adjacent components obstruct the locking latches. No driver installation is needed for operation.

Questions about this item

What connector type and pin count does this cable use for the host and target ends?

Both ends use SFF-8654 74Pin male connectors that plug directly into the RAID or HBA controller and the storage backplane or NVMe U.2 drive bay.

How do I secure the cable so it does not come loose from server vibration?

Each SFF-8654 connector has a built-in locking latch; press the connector fully into the port until the latch clicks to prevent accidental unplugging.

Will the cable degrade or need replacement under continuous 24-hour operation?

The multi-layer shielding and high-purity copper conductors are designed for stable 24-hour continuous operation without signal degradation that would require scheduled replacement.
