SMUGDESK SFF-8087 Mini SAS to 4 SATA Breakout Cable .5m 1.6ft 6Gbps

SKU CH-8GFE-EPTM4

Connects a Mini SAS SFF-8087 controller to four SATA drives at up to 6Gbps with a compact .5m length for tidy server or NAS builds

  • Connect up to four SATA drives with a single SFF-8087 port
  • 6Gbps transfer rate keeps RAID arrays running smoothly
  • Shielded construction blocks EMI for stable drive detection
  • Short 0.5m length reduces cable clutter inside server chassis
  • Plug-and-play design works with RAID cards, HDDs and SSDs

SFF-8087 to 4 SATA breakout cable

This SFF-8087 Mini SAS fan-out cable splits one male connector into four separate SATA interfaces, letting you attach multiple SATA hard drives or SSDs to a compatible RAID controller. It is built for server, NAS and storage-enclosure expansions where internal drive counts need to grow without extra controller cards.

Sustained 6Gbps data throughput

The cable supports up to 6Gbps transfer speed and uses comprehensive shielding to block electromagnetic interference, keeping drive recognition stable and preventing dropouts during continuous RAID rebuilds, backup jobs or 24/7 surveillance recording. Its short .5m (1.6ft) length reduces slack, aids airflow and maintains signal quality under constant load.

Check controller and drive connectors

Verify that your RAID card or HBA provides an SFF-8087 Mini SAS port and that the target drives use standard SATA data connectors; the cable does not convert to other interfaces. Ensure the .5m reach suits your chassis layout and that the four SATA plugs can be routed to each drive bay without strain.

Questions about this item

Does the .5m length help keep airflow clear when the cable runs all day in a server?

The 0.5m / 1.6ft design eliminates redundant loose cables, improving airflow inside the chassis and making hardware maintenance easier during continuous operation.

What RAID controller port must I already have for the SFF-8087 connector to plug in?

You need a RAID card or HBA with an SFF-8087 Mini SAS male port; the cable splits that single port into four independent SATA interfaces for drive expansion.

Will my existing 3Gbps SATA drives work at full speed on this 6Gbps breakout cable?

Yes, the cable supports up to 6Gbps and is backward compatible with slower SATA drives, so 3Gbps drives will operate at their rated speed without bottlenecks.
