Mini SAS HD SFF8644 cable with IC splitting to four SATA 7-pin connectors, 3m length

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK Mini SAS HD SFF8644 with IC to 4 x SATA 7Pin Breakout Cable 3m

SKU CH-VYN2-TKHF9

Converts a Mini SAS HD SFF8644 port into four SATA 7-pin connections with an integrated IC for stable 6Gbps data transfer across 3 metres of 28AWG copper cable

  • Integrated IC chip stabilises signals over 3 metre runs
  • 28AWG copper conductors sustain 6Gbps bandwidth with low loss
  • Single SFF8644 Mini SAS HD port expands to four SATA 7pin connections
  • Designed for multi‑drive RAID arrays and enterprise storage deployments
  • 3 metre length enables flexible long‑range routing inside server cabinets

Connector and reach

This SMUGDESK breakout cable converts a single Mini SAS HD SFF8644 port into four SATA 7pin connections for linking multiple hard drives or solid-state drives. The integrated signal-conditioning IC chip maintains data integrity across the full three-metre run, making it suited to server chassis and rackmount wiring.

Suitable builds and limits

It suits administrators expanding RAID arrays, NAS units or enterprise storage where a single host port must serve four drives at 6Gbps. Builders needing a different host connector, a shorter internal run or support for protocols other than SAS and SATA should select another cable.

Deciding specification

The onboard IC chip is the feature that enables stable long-distance transmission at 6Gbps over the 28AWG copper conductors; without it the signal would degrade at this length.

Questions about this item

What does the 6Gbps rating mean once the cable is installed in a server?

The 6Gbps rating means each of the four SATA connections can transfer data at up to 6 gigabits per second, matching the SATA III specification for hard drives and SSDs.

How does the SFF‑8644 Mini SAS HD interface limit real‑world performance?

The SFF‑8644 Mini SAS HD plug carries four 6Gbps lanes, so the breakout is capped at 6Gbps per SATA port; total throughput depends on the controller and drives attached.

What clearance does the 3 metre cable need inside a chassis?

At three metres long with 28AWG copper conductors, the cable requires enough routing space for a thick, flexible run between the controller card and four drive bays.
