Slim low-profile cable with MCIO 8X and SFF8654 74-pin connectors, 31.49 inches long

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK PCIe 5.0 MCIO 8X to LP SlimSAS SFF8654 74Pin 24Gbps 31.49in infiniband cable

SKU CH-VXE3-0GC0H

Connects MCIO 8X to low-profile SFF-8654 74-pin at PCIe 5.0 24 Gbps in a 31.49-inch slim cable for dense server chassis

  • PCIe 5.0 compliant link connects MCIO 8X to SFF8654 74pin directly
  • 24Gbps singlechannel bandwidth drives NVMe SSDs and RAID controllers fast
  • Lowprofile slim design frees space and boosts airflow in dense servers
  • 49inch length enables tidy longrange internal routing in rackmount chassis
  • Lowloss conductor build keeps signal integrity stable for enterprise storage arrays

Direct MCIO 8X to SlimSAS SFF8654 link

This cable provides a PCIe 5.0 compliant connection between an MCIO 8X port and a lowprofile SFF8654 74pin connector. It targets server builders and storage engineers wiring NVMe SSDs or RAID controllers inside dense chassis.

Lowprofile design aids airflow and routing

The slim lowprofile form factor conserves internal space and promotes better airflow in compact servers and highdensity backplanes. Highquality lowloss conductors maintain stable 24Gbps singlechannel signal integrity across the full 31.49inch run.

Replaces bulkier legacy interconnects

Upgrade from older cables that limit bandwidth or obstruct cooling in tight rackmount layouts. The jump is worthwhile when moving to 24Gbps singlechannel speeds for nextgen enterprise storage arrays.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the MCIO 8X end to a PCIe 5.0 motherboard header without bending the low-profile SlimSAS SFF8654 74Pin connector?

Align the MCIO 8X plug with the motherboard keying notch, press straight in until the latch clicks, then route the 31.49in cable so the SlimSAS end enters the backplane straight — forcing it at an angle bends the low-profile pins.

What part of this cable wears out first when NVMe SSDs run 24Gbps traffic continuously?

The low-loss conductor and solder joints at both the MCIO 8X and SlimSAS SFF8654 74Pin ends degrade from repeated thermal cycling; inspect for intermittent link errors after heavy sustained use.

At what point does signal integrity become the limiting factor on this 31.49in run at 24Gbps?

The 31.49in length is the practical limit for PCIe 5.0 24Gbps single-channel operation; longer runs increase attenuation beyond the low-loss wire's margin and cause link retraining.
