SMUGDESK Mini SAS HD SFF8643 to 4x SATA Cable 12Gbps Red 30AWG

SKU CH-JHSS-JE6WR

A 12Gbps breakout cable converts one Mini SAS HD SFF8643 port into four SATA connections using 30AWG copper for reliable multi‑drive expansion in servers and RAID arrays

  • Converts one Mini SAS HD port into four SATA connections for multi-drive expansion
  • Delivers 12 Gbps SAS 3.0 bandwidth for enterprise HDDs, SSDs and RAID storage
  • 30 AWG copper wire reduces signal loss and crosstalk for reliable performance
  • Red jacket simplifies identification and cable management inside server enclosures
  • One-metre length allows flexible routing in rackmount servers, storage backplanes and NAS deployments

Cable purpose and audience

This breakout cable converts a single Mini SAS HD SFF8643 host port into four independent SATA connections for multi-drive expansion. It is built for administrators and integrators who need reliable 12Gbps SAS 3.0 bandwidth in enterprise RAID arrays, data-centre storage and high-density server deployments.

Who should use it and who should not

The 30AWG copper construction and one-metre length suit rack-mount servers, storage backplanes and NAS chassis where cable routing and identification matter. Buyers who require a different connector type, a longer reach or a non-breakout cable will need an alternative solution.

Deciding specification

The cable delivers 12Gbps SAS 3.0 throughput over a SFF8643 to four SATA breakout, so the host controller and backplane must both support that exact interface and speed for the link to operate as intended.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the cable is delivering 12Gbps throughput after connecting my drives?

Check your RAID controller or HBA dashboard; each attached drive should report a negotiated link speed of 12Gbps SAS 3.0 with no errors.

What connectors and accessories are included, and do I need separate power cables for the drives?

The box contains the 1m red breakout cable with one SFF8643 Mini SAS HD plug and four SATA data connectors; SATA power cables must be sourced separately.

Should I choose a different length or wire gauge for my 4U server chassis?

This model is only offered as a 1m 30AWG assembly; if your routing requires more reach, you will need a longer cable from another listing.
