SMUGDESK SFF8654 8i to 8×SATA 90° Fanout Cable 24Gbps 1m

SKU CH-NRKG-FW6E5

Connects one SFF-8654 8i SAS port to eight 90-degree SATA drives at 24 Gbps over one metre

  • 1-to-8 fanout expands drive capacity from one SFF-8654 8i port
  • 90° angled SATA connectors save space inside server chassis
  • Full-cover anti-misplug design prevents wrong insertion and damage
  • 24 Gbps throughput meets enterprise storage performance demands
  • 1 m shielded length keeps wiring neat with low signal loss

Product overview

The SMUGDESK fanout cable connects a single SFF8654 8i host port to eight independent SATA ports using a 1to8 design. It supports 24Gbps data transfer for enterprise storage expansion and RAID array deployment. The 1m length suits server chassis layouts while shielding reduces signal loss.

Compatibility check

Verify that your host controller or backplane provides an SFF8654 8i interface before ordering. Ensure the 90degree angled SATA connectors fit your drive bay orientation and clearance. Confirm the 1m cable reach matches the distance between the host port and the target drives.

Who this suits

Ideal for server administrators deploying multi-drive RAID systems who need dense, high-speed connectivity with anti-misplug protection. Builders requiring longer cable runs, different connector angles, or non-SATA drive interfaces should evaluate alternative cable assemblies.

Questions about this item

What does the box contain and do I need anything else to connect eight drives?

The cable provides one SFF-8654 8i plug and eight 90° SATA connectors; you only need a host port that accepts SFF-8654 8i and the SATA drives themselves.

Which version of this fanout cable should I choose for a 24Gbps server backplane?

The listed model supports 24Gbps transmission, so this single version matches a 24Gbps backplane without further selection.

What does the 24Gbps rating mean when the cable is installed in a live RAID array?

It indicates each of the eight lanes can carry up to 24Gbps, giving the full bandwidth the host controller and drives negotiate in the array.
