SMUGDESK Slimline SAS SFF8654 4i 38Pin to 4Port SATA Cable

SKU CH-EP56-Y4GXJ

Converts a single 38-pin Slimline SAS SFF8654 4i port into four SATA connections for server storage expansion

  • Single 38-pin SFF8654 4i port expands to four independent SATA ports
  • High-speed stable transmission supports server RAID controllers, HDDs and SSDs
  • Server-grade shielding reduces signal loss, crosstalk and electromagnetic interference
  • Optimized for compact low-profile server internal storage and backplane wiring
  • Plug-and-play design enables easy server storage expansion and hardware upgrades

Slimline SAS SFF8654 4i breakout cable

This cable converts a single 38pin Slimline SAS SFF8654 4i port into four independent SATA connections. It is built for server administrators and integrators who need to attach SATA hard drives or solidstate drives to a Slim SAS controller in enterprise servers and workstations. The 1to4 breakout design supports highspeed stable transmission for RAID configurations and storage expansion. Shielded construction reduces signal loss and electromagnetic interference inside dense chassis.

Suits servers with Slimline SAS controllers

The cable fits builders who have a controller exposing the SFF8654 4i interface and want to run up to four SATA devices without a backplane. It is not for systems that only provide standard Mini SAS or legacy SCSI connectors. It is also not for installations that require a different pin count or a straightthrough cable rather than a breakout design.

Single 38pin SFF8654 4i to four SATA ports

The decisive specification is the 1to4 breakout from one 38pin Slimline SAS SFF8654 4i connector to four SATA ports. If the host controller presents this exact interface and the target drives use SATA, the cable completes the link. If the controller uses any other connector type or the drives require a different protocol, this cable will not fit.

Questions about this item

What clearance does the 38Pin SFF8654 4i connector need inside the chassis?

The Slimline SAS plug is low-profile so it fits in tight server bays; allow room for the four SATA tails to route to each drive without sharp bends.

Which step is often missed when fitting the breakout to a RAID controller?

Seat the 38Pin SFF8654 4i end fully until the latch clicks, then connect each SATA plug to its drive before powering on the system.

When should the cable be replaced in a production server?

Swap it if the shielding shows cuts, the latch no longer holds, or drives drop from the array intermittently.
