Mini SAS SFF-8087 to 4 SATA cable

This 0.5 metre breakout cable converts a single SFF-8087 Mini SAS male connector into four independent SATA ports. It lets you attach up to four SATA drives to a compatible RAID controller or storage adapter using one compact link. The design suits server and storage-enclosure builds where internal space is tight. Builders expanding drive counts in NAS or server platforms will find it a direct fit.

Check controller and drive connectors

Verify that your RAID card or backplane presents an SFF-8087 Mini SAS port before ordering. Each of the four breakout ends terminates in a standard SATA data connector for 2.5 inch or 3.5 inch SSDs and HDDs. The cable carries data only; separate power cables from your supply are required for every drive. Ensure your chassis routing can accommodate the 1.6 foot length between the controller and the drive bays.

Signal integrity and connector durability

Moulded connector housings resist pulling and vibration to maintain a steady link during continuous server operation. The internal wiring structure is optimised for stable signal transmission across the full 0.5 metre run. No active components or external power are needed, so the assembly adds negligible heat or noise to the chassis. The passive design keeps power draw at the level of the attached drives and controller alone.

Questions about this item

Does the cable come with the four SATA drives or just the breakout lead?

Only the .5m SFF-8087 to 4 SATA breakout cable is included; the 2.5-inch or 3.5-inch SATA SSDs and HDDs must be purchased separately.

Is the .5m length the only option or are longer versions available?

The product listed here is the .5m (1.6FT) version; other lengths are not described in this entry.

What real-world transfer speed will I see from the four SATA drives through this cable?

The cable passes native SATA signals from the RAID controller to each drive, so each port runs at the drive's own SATA speed limit.
