SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK Mini SAS HD SFF8088 26Pin to 4×eSATA 7Pin Cable 2M

SKU CH-VZ0Q-8MZ32

Connects a single SFF8088 Mini SAS HD port to four eSATA drives with 28AWG copper wire for stable 6Gbps transfer over 78.74in

  • Converts one SFF-8088 Mini SAS HD port to four eSATA female ports
  • 28AWG pure copper conductors deliver stable 6Gbps bandwidth for SAS/SATA drives
  • Heavy-duty shielding minimises electromagnetic interference for reliable long-term operation
  • 2 metre extended length enables flexible external routing between servers and storage enclosures
  • Durable construction designed for enterprise HDD, SSD and RAID systems

External SAS Breakout Cable

This SMUGDESK cable adapts one SFF8088 26pin Mini SAS HD male connector into four eSATA 7pin female ports, letting a single external SAS interface drive multiple external hard drives or storage enclosures. The 28AWG pure copper conductors carry steady 6Gbps bandwidth for SAS and SATA devices, and heavy shielding cuts electromagnetic interference for reliable longterm operation in enterprise RAID setups. At 2meter or 78.74in it supports longdistance wiring between rackmount servers and external storage units.

Suitable for server-to-enclosure expansion

The breakout design suits administrators who need to connect a server's external Mini SAS HD port to several eSATA drives or JBOD chassis without adding internal controllers. Builders who require internal SATA breakout, alternative external SAS pinouts, or a different connector gender should look at other cable types. The fixed 2meter length also means installers needing significantly shorter or longer runs must choose a different assembly.

SFF8088 26pin to four eSATA 7pin female

The single specification that decides fit is the connector combination: one SFF8088 26pin Mini SAS HD male plug splitting to four eSATA 7pin female sockets. Verify the server or HBA presents exactly that external Mini SAS HD port and that the target drives or enclosures accept eSATA connectors before purchasing.

Questions about this item

Will the SFF8088 connector on this cable work with an older 6Gbps SAS controller card?

The SFF8088 Mini SAS HD male plug is designed for 6Gbps SAS interfaces, so it will connect to a compatible controller running at that speed.

How can I verify the 6Gbps link is active after I connect four eSATA drives?

Check the controller BIOS or operating system device list; each drive should appear at 6Gbps negotiation speed with no errors reported.

Does the package include the four eSATA drives or only the 2M breakout cable?

Only the 2M cable with one SFF8088 male end and four eSATA female ports is supplied; drives and any mounting hardware must be purchased separately.
