Two MiniSAS SFF8088 26pin to four SFF8482 29pin SAS SATA breakout cables with power, 3.3FT

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK MiniSAS SFF8088 26Pin to 4×SFF8482 29Pin with Power Cable 1m 3.3FT

SKU CH-3TC7-Y1SRC

A two-piece breakout cable converts one SFF-8088 26-pin port into four SFF-8482 29-pin SATA/SAS drive connections with integrated power over 1 metre length

  • Connect four drives from one MiniSAS port
  • Built-in power cable eliminates separate power wiring
  • One-metre length gives flexible routing in racks
  • Copper conductors deliver stable high-speed SAS and SATA data
  • Plug-and-play with mainstream server boards and storage enclosures

Two-Pack Breakout Cable

This two-pack MiniSAS breakout cable converts a single SFF8088 26pin port into four SFF8482 29pin SAS or SATA drive connections. It targets server administrators and NAS builders who need to expand internal storage using existing controller ports. The integrated power lines feed drives directly from the same assembly. Each cable supports up to four hard disks or solid-state drives.

High-Quality Copper Conductors

Durable copper conductors maintain stable high-speed data transmission across all four drive links. The SFF8088 plug mates with standard external MiniSAS ports on mainstream server motherboards and RAID controllers. Four SFF8482 connectors attach to internal SAS or SATA backplanes or drive bays without adapters. The one metre length allows tidy routing inside rackmount chassis and storage enclosures.

Replaces Separate Data and Power Looms

This assembly replaces the combination of a plain MiniSAS breakout cable plus discrete Molex or SATA power cables. The jump is worthwhile when drive bays lack dedicated power backplanes or when cable count must be minimised for airflow. Builders who need more than four drives per controller port should plan additional ports or a different topology.

Highlights

  • Connect four drives from one MiniSAS port
  • Built-in power cable eliminates separate power wiring
  • One-metre length gives flexible routing in racks
  • Copper conductors deliver stable high-speed SAS and SATA data
  • Plug-and-play with mainstream server boards and storage enclosures

Questions about this item

What does the SFF-8088 26-pin interface cap in practice?

The SFF-8088 26-pin connector carries four lanes of SAS or SATA traffic, letting one port drive up to four individual drives at their native link speeds.

What clearance and connector space does the 1 m breakout cable need to fit?

The cable needs room for the single SFF-8088 plug at the controller and four SFF-8482 29-pin plugs at the drives, plus the integrated power leads running alongside them.

How is the cable installed, and what step do people often miss?

Connect the SFF-8088 end to the controller, attach each SFF-8482 end to a drive, and plug the integrated power leads into the same drives; the step often missed is seating the power connectors so the drives actually spin up.
