Black flat Mini SAS SFF8087 cable, one metre, straight-through connectors

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK Mini SAS SFF8087 to SFF8087 Cable 12Gbps 30AWG 1m

SKU CH-PKNE-B298H

Internal 12Gbps SAS 3.0 cable connects two SFF8087 ports with 30AWG copper for enterprise storage and RAID backplanes

  • 12 Gbps SAS 3.0 bandwidth for high-speed storage arrays
  • 30 AWG pure copper conductors reduce signal loss and crosstalk
  • Flat SFF-8087 connectors enable space-saving routing in dense chassis
  • Straight-through wiring links two Mini SAS ports directly
  • 1 metre length suits extended internal runs in enterprise servers

Server Storage Interconnect

This internal cable links two SFF8087 Mini SAS ports inside a server or storage enclosure. It is designed for administrators building RAID arrays, attaching backplanes, or stacking enterprise storage systems that require a direct SAS 3.0 path.

12Gbps Bandwidth Headroom

The 12Gbps rating supports full SAS 3.0 throughput across the 1meter link, handling multi-drive RAID sets and highqueue-depth workloads without saturation. Copper 30AWG conductors keep attenuation low, but the cable cannot compensate for controller or backplane limits that fall below the 12Gbps spec.

Signal Integrity Focus

Pure copper 30AWG wiring reduces crosstalk and attenuation to maintain clean eye patterns at 12Gbps. The flat black connector profile eases routing in dense chassis, aiding airflow around the cable run. No active components are present, so power draw is negligible and there is no fan noise to consider.

Questions about this item

Will this 12Gbps SFF8087 cable work with my existing 6Gbps SAS backplane?

Yes, the cable carries SAS 3.0 signalling at 12Gbps and is backward compatible with 6Gbps and 3Gbps SAS devices, so it will link your current backplane to a newer controller without signal degradation.

How can I verify the cable is delivering full 12Gbps throughput after installation?

Check the controller BIOS or operating system drive utility for a negotiated link speed of 12Gbps on each port; the 30AWG pure copper conductors and straight-through wiring are designed to maintain that rate across the 1m run.

Does the package include any drive trays, mounting brackets or additional adapters?

No, the box contains only the 1m SFF8087 to SFF8087 cable with black flat-style connectors; drive trays, brackets or protocol converters must be sourced separately.
