SMUGDESK SFF8654 8i to Dual SFF8644 SAS Cable .5m

SKU CH-Y51R-JCANR

High-performance breakout cable converts a single SFF-8654 8i Slimline SAS port to dual SAS HD SFF-8644 interfaces with full-cover anti-misplug housing

  • Converts one SFF8654 8i port into two SFF8644 connections
  • Full-cover anti-misplug housing prevents reverse insertion and port damage
  • 10-ohm impedance-matched 32AWG copper harness maintains stable high-speed signals
  • 5-metre compact length suits tight internal routing in rackmount servers
  • Designed for enterprise SAS servers, RAID controllers and JBOD enclosures

Signal conversion

This breakout cable converts a single SFF8654 8i Slimline SAS port into two SAS HD SFF8644 interfaces. It is built for enterprise servers, RAID controllers and JBOD enclosures that require highdensity storage connectivity. The short 0.5meter length suits internal or external routing inside compact rackmount chassis.

Anti misplug housing

A fullcover antimisplug design prevents reverse insertion and protects sensitive server ports from physical damage. This mechanical safeguard reduces the risk of bent pins or connector stress during maintenance. Installers can connect and disconnect with confidence in dense backplane environments.

Impedance matched harness

Strict 10ohm impedance control and 32AWG pure copper conductors minimise signal attenuation and crosstalk at high speeds. The slim harness eases cable management in tight spaces without compromising signal integrity. Builders needing longer reach or different breakout counts should select an alternative length or configuration.

Questions about this item

Will the 32AWG copper harness need replacement after repeated insertions?

The full-cover anti-misplug housing is designed to prevent reverse insertion, protecting both the SFF8654 8i and dual SFF8644 connectors from physical damage during repeated mating cycles.

What is the first signal-integrity limit reached on a 0.5m run at PCIe speeds?

The harness uses strict 10ohm impedance-matched 32AWG wire to minimise attenuation and crosstalk, keeping signal loss within spec for the short 0.5 metre length.

Does the cable add measurable heat or power draw when run continuously in a server?

As a passive copper assembly with no active components, it draws no auxiliary power and generates negligible heat during sustained high-speed SAS data transmission.
