SMUGDESK Power eSATA to SATA 22Pin Cable .5M

SKU CH-MX0F-P75FH

Powered eSATA cable delivers 12V and 5V power plus SATA data to 2.5 or 3.5 inch drives over a .5 metre shielded link

  • Powered eSATA delivers 12V and 5V power alongside data through one 22pin connector
  • .5 metre length keeps desktop storage tidy and saves space for DIY builds
  • Works with 2.5inch SSDs and 3.5inch mechanical drives for flexible drive support
  • Multilayer shielding cuts electromagnetic interference for stable read and write performance
  • Plug and play setup suits external docking, backup and custom enclosure projects

Powered eSATA to SATA 22pin cable

This .5 metre adapter converts a powered eSATA (eSATA+USB) composite port into a standard SATA 22pin interface. It delivers both 12V and 5V power alongside the data signal, allowing direct connection of 2.5inch or 3.5inch SATA drives without a separate power supply. The cable suits DIY external docking, backup or enclosure projects. It will not work with standard eSATA ports that lack power output.

Capacity and headroom

The integrated dual-voltage design comfortably handles the spin-up and sustained operation of 3.5inch mechanical drives as well as lower-draw 2.5inch SSDs. Multilayer shielding keeps electromagnetic interference low, preserving stable read-write performance during extended high-load transfers. A standard eSATA port without 12V+5V power cannot drive larger drives, leading to non-recognition or potential damage. The fixed .5 metre length limits reach to nearby desktop arrangements.

Build integration

Plug-and-play operation requires no driver installation, freeing up PCIe slots or USB headers that a separate controller card would occupy. The short cable keeps the desk area tidy and suits compact custom enclosures. Builders must verify the host port is a genuine Power eSATA implementation before connecting. Ordinary eSATA or USB-only ports cannot supply the necessary voltages for this adapter to function.

Questions about this item

Will this .5 metre cable power a 3.5 inch SATA drive from my laptop's eSATA port?

Only if the laptop port is a true Power eSATA socket that delivers 12V and 5V; a standard eSATA port cannot supply the 12V needed for a 3.5 inch mechanical drive.

How can I verify the cable is delivering both data and power after I connect it?

The drive should spin up immediately and appear in the operating system without any driver installation; stable transfer rates and no disconnects confirm the multilayer shielding is working.

Does the package include a separate power adapter or only the integrated cable?

Only the single .5 metre Power eSATA to SATA 22pin cable is supplied; no extra power brick or USB cable is included because 12V and 5V travel through the host's Power eSATA port.
