PCIe Gen5 MCIO 8X 8i breakout cable splits one port into dual right-angle SFF8087 Mini SAS connectors for 32Gbps RAID and SSD arrays
- Converts one MCIO 8X 8i port into dual SFF-8087 Mini SAS connectors
- 90-degree right-angle plugs save space inside dense server chassis
- 85-ohm impedance control keeps 32 Gbps signals stable over .5 m
- Works with RAID controllers, SAS and SATA drives for multi-drive expansion
- Short 19.68 in length simplifies tight internal cable routing
PCIe Gen5 MCIO 8X 8i breakout
This PCIe Gen5 compliant cable converts a single MCIO 8X 8i port into two SFF8087 Mini SAS connectors. It is built for enterprise servers and workstations that need to attach multiple SAS or SATA drives to a RAID controller. The short 0.5 metre length keeps internal wiring tidy in dense chassis.
Right angle design for dense chassis
The 90 degree right angle connectors allow space saving routing where straight plugs would block airflow or adjacent slots. This layout is worth the upgrade when a standard cable cannot fit inside a compact rackmount or small form factor server. It solves clearance problems without sacrificing signal quality.
32Gbps bandwidth with 85ohm control
Precision 85ohm impedance matching supports stable 32Gbps data transfer across both Mini SAS links. The cable comfortably handles high speed SSD arrays and multi drive HDD sets in JBOD or RAID configurations. It runs out of headroom only if the controller or drives cannot saturate the Gen5 link.

Questions about this item
Will the right-angle SFF-8087 connectors clear a 90-degree bend in a tight server chassis?
The 90-degree right-angle design is built for spacesaving routing in compact, highdensity server chassis and maximizes internal airflow efficiency.
How do I connect the MCIO 8X 8i end to my RAID controller without damaging the latch?
Align the MCIO 8X 8i plug with the controller port, press straight in until the latch clicks, and route the .5-meter cable so the right-angle SFF-8087 ends sit flat against the drive backplane.
When should I replace this cable to keep 32Gbps signal integrity?
Replace it if the 85-ohm impedance control is compromised by sharp kinks, crushed jacketing, or corroded SFF-8087 contacts after repeated drive swaps.
