  • Connects RAID or HBA cards to SFF8087 backplanes using SFF8643 ports
  • Delivers 12Gbps SAS speed and works with 6Gbps SAS and SATA drives
  • 1 meter length fits standard server chassis cable routing
  • Shielded construction reduces crosstalk for stable high-speed data transfer
  • Two-cable pack simplifies storage array and NAS deployments

SFF8643 to SFF8087 Internal Cable

The SMUGDESK SFF8643 to SFF8087 Mini SAS HD cable connects RAID controllers or HBA cards with SFF8643 ports to backplanes or drive enclosures using SFF8087 connectors. It supports 12Gbps SAS and remains backward compatible with 6Gbps SAS and SATA drives. Each cable measures 1 meter (3.28 ft) and features shielded construction to reduce crosstalk and signal loss. The 2pack provides spare or duplicate links for multi-drive arrays.

Suited For RAID and HBA Storage Builds

This cable suits administrators wiring internal storage in servers, workstations or NAS units where the controller presents SFF8643 and the backplane uses SFF8087. It is not for external connections, nor for systems requiring a different connector interface on either end. Builders needing longer runs or alternative connector types should look at other cable assemblies.

12Gbps SAS Speed Rating Decides Fit

The single specification that determines suitability is the 12Gbps SAS native speed rating with 6Gbps SAS/SATA backward compatibility. If the controller, backplane or drives operate at this signalling rate and use the stated SFF8643 and SFF8087 interfaces, the cable will perform as intended.

Questions about this item

Does the 2-pack include both the SFF8643 and SFF8087 connectors or do I need adapters?

Each cable has an SFF8643 male connector on one end and an SFF8087 male connector on the other, so no separate adapters are required.

Should I choose the 12Gbps version for 6Gbps SAS or SATA drives?

The cable runs at 12Gbps SAS natively and is fully backward compatible with 6Gbps SAS and SATA drives, so one version covers both speeds.

Will the 12Gbps rating actually be reached inside my server chassis?

The 1 metre shielded design minimises crosstalk and signal loss, allowing the link to negotiate 12Gbps SAS when both the controller and backplane support it.
