Mini SAS SFF8087 plug splitting into four SATA connectors

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK Mini SAS SFF8087 to 4Port SATA Cable

SKU CH-H8DM-P2FGS

A Mini SAS SFF8087 breakout cable splits one host port into four SATA connections for server storage expansion

  • Single SFF8087 splits into four SATA ports for multidrive expansion
  • Highbandwidth transfer supports RAID arrays, HDDs and SSDs
  • Antiinterference shielding reduces signal loss and crosstalk
  • Plugandplay design simplifies internal server installation
  • Optimized for backplane and highdensity storage wiring

Breakout Cable for RAID Expansion

This SMUGDESK cable converts a single Mini SAS SFF8087 host port into four independent SATA connections. It is designed for internal server backplane wiring and storage expansion. Shielded construction reduces electromagnetic interference and signal attenuation. The plug-and-play design simplifies hardware installation and drive upgrades.

Suits Enterprise Storage Builders

Builders adding multiple hard drives or solid-state drives to a RAID controller or HBA with an SFF8087 port will benefit from the 1-to-4 breakout layout. It is not suited for direct attachment to a standard motherboard SATA header, external drive enclosures, or systems that require a native U.2 interface.

Mini SAS SFF8087 Host Interface

The single SFF8087 connector on the host side is the defining compatibility factor. Verify that your RAID controller, HBA or backplane presents this exact port before purchase. The four SATA data connectors on the drive side accept standard SATA drives for high-density internal wiring.

Questions about this item

How do I decide between a single SFF8087 breakout cable and a straight-through SAS cable?

Choose this breakout when your controller has one Mini SAS SFF8087 port and you need to connect up to four separate SATA drives or backplane slots.

What does the 8087 connector actually deliver once installed in a server?

The 8087 Mini SAS port carries four independent SAS lanes that each map to one SATA drive, giving you four full-speed SATA connections from a single controller port.

What SAS or SATA standard does this cable support and what speed does that cap at?

The cable passes native SAS signalling to each SATA port, so the practical ceiling is the SATA revision your drives and controller negotiate — typically 6 Gb/s per lane.
