SMUGDESK PCIe 5.0 Slimline SAS MCIO SFF8654 8i 74Pin to MCIO SFF8654 Cable, 39.37 Inches

SKU CH-JAXN-M7DXW

Connects PCIe 5.0 Slimline SAS MCIO SFF8654 8i 74Pin devices with a 39.37 inch high-speed cable

  • PCIe 5.0 bandwidth for next-gen NVMe SSDs
  • Slimline connectors optimize airflow in dense servers
  • 37-inch length enables flexible internal routing
  • Low-loss wiring minimizes signal attenuation and crosstalk
  • Dual SFF8654 8i 74Pin connectors for direct SAS extension

PCIe 5.0 MCIO SFF8654 Direct-Attach Cable

This PCIe 5.0 compliant internal cable connects two MCIO SFF8654 8i 74Pin ports for direct Slimline SAS extension inside servers. It is built for high-density storage arrays and AI compute nodes that require ultra-high bandwidth links between NVMe controllers and backplanes. The precision impedance-matched wiring preserves signal integrity across the full 39.37inch run.

Suits rackmount builds needing maximum airflow.

The slimline low-profile form factor keeps internal airflow paths clear in compact 1U or 2U chassis, making it a good fit for dense enterprise deployments. Buyers who need external cabinet-to-cabinet connections or longer runs beyond the fixed 39.37inch length should look at active optical or copper assemblies designed for that reach. The fixed connector orientation also limits routing flexibility in very tight drive cages.

Single spec that decides fit: dual MCIO SFF8654 8i

Both ends terminate in identical MCIO SFF8654 8i 74Pin connectors, so the cable only works when the host controller, backplane or retimer presents that exact interface. Verify the port count and keying on your NVMe or SAS hardware before ordering, because mismatched connector types will not mate and no adapter is included.

Highlights

  • PCIe 5.0 bandwidth for next-gen NVMe SSDs
  • Slimline connectors optimize airflow in dense servers
  • 37-inch length enables flexible internal routing
  • Low-loss wiring minimizes signal attenuation and crosstalk
  • Dual SFF8654 8i 74Pin connectors for direct SAS extension

Questions about this item

What controller or backplane must I already have with an MCIO SFF8654 8i 74Pin port to plug this cable in?

You need a PCIe 5.0 host adapter, NVMe backplane or server motherboard that exposes an MCIO SFF8654 8i 74Pin Slimline SAS connector.

Will this cable work if I connect a PCIe 4.0 NVMe drive or controller to one end?

Yes, the PCIe 5.0 cable is backward compatible and will run at PCIe 4.0 speeds when linked to older generation hardware.

How can I verify the link is running at PCIe 5.0 after installation?

Check the negotiated link width and speed in your OS or BIOS — x8 at PCIe 5.0 confirms the cable is delivering full performance.
