Slimline SAS SFF8654 4i to SATA cable
This SMUGDESK harness converts a PCIe 4.0 Slimline SAS SFF8654 4i 38pin connector into four 90degree female SATA ports. It is designed for administrators expanding storage inside enterprise servers, RAID arrays or multi-drive systems using existing Slimline SAS backplanes or controllers.
30AWG copper with right-angle SATA plugs
The cable uses 30AWG pure copper conductors and anti-interference shielding for stable high-speed data transfer. Each 90degree SATA connector reduces the bend radius behind drives, making daily cable routing practical in dense chassis where straight plugs would block adjacent bays or airflow paths.
Check controller port keying and drive power
Before ordering, verify that your host controller or backplane presents a Slimline SAS SFF8654 4i receptacle rather than a different pin-count or keying. Confirm that target drives accept standard SATA data connectors and that separate power cables are available, as this harness carries data only.

Questions about this item
What bandwidth does the PCIe 4.0 Slimline SAS SFF8654 4i interface support in practice?
The cable is PCIe 4.0 compliant and converts a single SFF8654 4i 38pin connector into four SATA ports, so each SATA device runs at up to 6 Gb/s while the upstream link carries up to PCIe 4.0 x4 speeds.
What clearance does the 90-degree SATA connector need to fit inside a server chassis?
Each female SATA plug uses a right-angle 90degree design that keeps the cable close to the drive, allowing tight routing in compact enclosures without blocking adjacent bays.
How do I install the harness, and which step do people often miss?
Connect the SFF8654 4i end to the controller or backplane, then plug each 90degree SATA connector into the drive; the step often missed is fully seating the Slimline SAS latch until it clicks, otherwise the link will not train at PCIe 4.0 speeds.
