Thin .5m cable with MCIO 8i and Slimline SAS 4.0 SFF8654 8i 74pin connectors

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK PCIe 5.0 MCIO 8i to Slimline SAS 4.0 SFF8654 8i 74Pin Cable .5m

SKU CH-MN5S-96MGE

Connects MCIO 8i to Slimline SAS 4.0 SFF8654 8i 74Pin at 24Gbps over .5m with 85Ohm copper

  • PCIe 5.0 compliant cross-interface cable connects MCIO 8i to Slimline SAS Gen4 SFF8654 8i 74pin port
  • 85Ohm precision-matched copper wire ensures ultra-low-loss signal integrity for high-speed transmission
  • Supports steady 24Gbps bandwidth, ideal for NVMe SSDs, RAID controllers and enterprise storage backplanes
  • 5m compact length enables clean routing in high-density rackmount servers and workstation builds
  • Strict impedance control minimizes crosstalk, perfect for next-gen data center and high-performance computing

PCIe 5.0 MCIO 8i to Slimline SAS 4.0 Cable

This .5m interconnect cable bridges an MCIO 8i port to a Slimline SAS 4.0 SFF8654 8i 74Pin connector. It is built for enterprise servers and high-performance workstations that need a direct link between modern controllers and dense storage backplanes.

Suited for NVMe and RAID backplane builds

The cable supports steady 24Gbps bandwidth, making it appropriate for NVMe SSD arrays and RAID controller integration. It is not for consumer desktop boards that lack MCIO or Slimline SAS 4.0 ports, nor for installations requiring longer runs than the fixed .5m length provides.

Simple internal routing with fixed length

The compact .5m design allows clean cable management inside high-density rackmount chassis. The 85Ohm impedance-matched copper wire minimises crosstalk, but the set length means installers must verify exact port spacing before deployment.

Questions about this item

What connector must my motherboard or backplane provide for the MCIO 8i end of this cable?

Your board or backplane needs an MCIO 8i port that supports PCIe 5.0 signalling.

Can I keep my existing Slimline SAS 4.0 SFF8654 8i 74pin devices on the other end?

Yes, the Slimline SAS 4.0 SFF8654 8i 74pin connector is fully compatible with those devices.

How do I verify the link is running at the rated 24Gbps after installation?

Check the negotiated link speed in your RAID controller BIOS or OS storage utility; it should report 24Gbps per lane.
