Slim low-profile SFF-8654 8i 74-pin to LP 8X cable 1m

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK SFF-8654 8i 74-pin to LP 8X InfiniBand cable 1m 24Gbps 30AWG 85Ohm

SKU CH-TBSS-Z8T0Y

Connects SFF-8654 8i 74-pin to LP 8X for 24Gbps NVMe, SAS and SATA links in tight server builds

  • Low-profile connector fits tight server chassis
  • 24 Gbps bandwidth on 85 Ohm 30 AWG copper
  • Direct SFF-8654 8i 74-pin to LP 8X link
  • Shielded design cuts crosstalk for NVMe RAID arrays
  • 1 m length allows flexible internal routing

Direct SFF-8654 8i to LP 8X link

This new SMUGDESK cable provides a low-profile internal connection between SFF-8654 8i 74-pin and LP 8X interfaces. It is built for compact servers, workstation upgrades and high-density storage deployments where space is limited. The 1m length supports flexible routing inside rack chassis and NVMe backplanes.

Suits tight enterprise builds.

Builders working with slim server enclosures, NAS systems or dense RAID configurations benefit from the slim form factor and improved airflow. It is not for users who require longer reach, external connectivity, or a different pin count. The design targets internal high-speed harness applications only.

24Gbps over 85Ohm 30AWG copper

The 85Ohm impedance-matched 30AWG harness delivers stable 24Gbps PCIe-compliant transmission with minimal signal attenuation. Anti-interference shielding reduces crosstalk for reliable operation with NVMe SSDs, RAID controllers and SAS or SATA drives. This specification determines suitability for high-bandwidth internal links.

Questions about this item

Will the 30AWG copper conductors need replacement after extended use?

The 30AWG copper harness is built for long-term stable operation; no periodic conductor replacement is required under normal server conditions.

What limits sustained 24Gbps throughput on this cable?

The 85Ohm impedance-matched design maintains signal integrity; the practical limit is the 24Gbps PCIe-compliant rating of the SFF-8654 8i interface.

Does the slim low-profile shielding add heat or noise inside a rack server?

The cable is passive with no active components, so it generates no noise or measurable heat; the slim profile actually improves chassis airflow.
