SAS 3.0 Internal Cable
This SMUGDESK Mini SAS HD cable provides a 12Gbps data link between RAID controllers, HBA adapters and server backplanes. It uses dual SFF-8643 connectors and measures 32 inches (81cm) for tidy routing inside mid-size and large chassis. Multi-layer shielding preserves signal integrity under continuous 24/7 load. Locking latches prevent accidental disconnection from vibration.
For SAS Storage Builds
The cable suits administrators wiring SAS or SATA drives to LSI/Broadcom RAID or HBA cards in enterprise servers, NAS units and disk arrays. It is not for external connections or installations that require a different connector type or longer reach. Buyers needing alternative interfaces or cable lengths must select a different product.
12Gbps SAS 3.0 Speed
The single specification that decides fit is the SAS 3.0 rating delivering up to 12Gbps throughput over the SFF-8643 interface. Verify that your controller, backplane and drives all support this standard before purchasing.

Questions about this item
What connectors must my RAID controller or backplane have to use this SFF-8643 cable?
Both ends use SFF-8643 Mini SAS HD connectors, so the controller, HBA, or backplane must each provide a matching SFF-8643 port.
Will this 12Gbps cable work with my existing 6Gbps SAS or SATA drives?
Yes, the SAS 3.0 link negotiates down to 6Gbps, so 6Gbps SAS and SATA drives operate normally through the cable.
How can I verify the link is running at 12Gbps after installation?
Check the controller BIOS or management utility; it will report a negotiated speed of 12Gbps per lane when the cable, controller, and drives all support SAS 3.0.
