SMUGDESK Mini SAS SFF-8087 36Pin Male to 4X SATA 7Pin Female Fan-Out Cable

SKU CH-43WN-HR681

A 36-pin Mini SAS SFF-8087 male connector splits to four SATA 7-pin female ports for connecting multiple drives to a RAID controller

  • Breakout design links one Mini SAS port to four SATA drives
  • 3 ft length allows tidy routing inside server chassis
  • Optimised wiring cuts crosstalk for reliable high-speed data transfer
  • Locking SATA connectors resist vibration-induced disconnection
  • Durable jacket withstands repeated bending in continuous server use

Mini SAS SFF-8087 36Pin Breakout Cable

This 1 metre fan-out cable converts a single Mini SAS SFF-8087 36Pin male connector into four independent SATA 7Pin female ports. It is built for servers, NAS units and workstations that use Mini SAS RAID controllers to attach multiple SATA hard drives or solid-state drives through one controller port. The 3.3 foot length allows tidy routing inside large storage enclosures.

Suited for RAID expansion, not direct drive power

The cable serves administrators adding SATA storage to a Mini SAS controller in data centres, DIY storage servers or surveillance arrays. Each SATA connector includes a standard locking latch that resists vibration-induced disconnects. Buyers who need to supply power to the drives must source separate power cables because this assembly carries data signals only.

SFF-8087 36Pin to four SATA 7Pin fan-out

The single specification that decides fitment is the Mini SAS SFF-8087 36Pin male interface breaking out to four SATA 7Pin female connectors. Verify that your RAID card or HBA presents an SFF-8087 port and that your drives use standard SATA data connectors before purchasing.

Questions about this item

What data rate does the SFF-8087 interface cap at in practice?

The SFF-8087 connector carries four SAS lanes, so total bandwidth matches the controller and drive generation installed.

What clearance does the 36Pin Mini SAS plug and four SATA ends need to fit?

The 1 meter length allows routing space, while standard locking SATA connectors require room for the latch release tab.

How is the fan-out cable installed, and which step is often missed?

Insert the Mini SAS male into the RAID controller until it clicks, then press each SATA female onto drives until the lock engages fully.
