Two SFF-8643 to four SFF-8482 breakout cables with 15-pin power, 1 metre length

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK SFF8643 to 4× SFF8482 Breakout Cable 1M 2Pack

SKU CH-3VEM-7YTX7

Breaks out one SFF8643 Mini SAS HD port into four SFF8482 connectors with integrated 15-pin SAS power, supporting 12Gbps speeds over 3.3ft for server storage expansion

  • Single SFF8643 port splits into four 29pin SFF8482 connectors for multidrive expansion
  • Integrated 15pin SAS power port supplies stable power directly to SAS/SATA hard drives
  • 12Gbps highbandwidth transfer supports enterprise RAID controllers and storage arrays
  • 1M/3.3FT length enables flexible internal server wiring layouts
  • 2pack provides costefficient bulk deployment for data center upgrades

Internal SAS Breakout Cable

The SMUGDESK cable converts a single SFF8643 Mini SAS HD host port into four independent 29pin SFF8482 connectors. It supports SAS and SATA hard drives and includes an integrated 15pin SAS power port for direct drive power. Each cable measures 1M or 3.3FT and is rated for 12Gbps data transfer. The pack contains two cables for multi-drive deployments.

Suits RAID and Server Storage Builds

This breakout cable suits administrators expanding enterprise RAID arrays or server backplanes where a single host port must serve four drives. The built-in power port reduces internal cable clutter by removing the need for separate power leads. Buyers needing external connectivity or drive interfaces other than SAS and SATA should look at alternative cable types.

12Gbps Throughput and Four-Drive Breakout

The cable delivers steady 12Gbps bandwidth across all four SFF8482 links, making it the deciding specification for high-density storage arrays. Server-grade shielding protects signal integrity at this speed inside dense chassis. If the target controller or backplane operates at a different signalling rate, this cable will not match the required performance profile.

Questions about this item

Will the SFF8643 host connector on this cable work with my existing SATA backplane?

The cable converts one SFF8643 Mini SAS HD port into four 29pin SFF8482 connectors that accept both SAS and SATA hard drives, so it connects directly to a SATA backplane.

How can I verify the 12Gbps link is active after installation?

Check the RAID controller BIOS or OS disk utility for a negotiated 12Gbps link speed on each of the four SFF8482 ports and confirm drives are detected without errors.

Does the 2pack include the 15pin power cables or must I source them separately?

Each cable has an integrated SAS 15pin power port that supplies drive power directly; no separate power cables are required for the connected SAS or SATA drives.
