SMUGDESK SlimSAS 4i SFF8654 to 4 SATA SAS Cable

SKU CH-X3DE-J3Z1N

A 24Gbps SlimSAS 4i to four SATA fanout cable expands one host port into four drive connections for RAID array cards

  • Converts one SFF8654 SlimSAS 4i port to four SATA drives for multidrive expansion
  • Delivers 24Gbps bandwidth fully compatible with SAS 4.0 RAID array cards
  • Optimized wiring minimizes signal loss and crosstalk for stable enterprise storage operation
  • Plug-and-play connectivity for HDDs, SSDs, RAID controllers and high-density server backplanes
  • Compact internal harness enables tidy cable routing inside rackmount servers and NAS enclosures

SlimSAS 4i to Four SATA Breakout

This high-speed fanout cable converts a single SFF-8654 SlimSAS 4i host port into four SATA connectors for multi-drive array expansion. It targets administrators adding direct-attached storage to RAID controllers in enterprise servers and high-capacity NAS enclosures.

Before Ordering Check Host Port

Verify that your RAID array card or backplane presents an SFF-8654 SlimSAS 4i receptacle and that the controller supports SAS 4.0 signalling. Confirm the target drives use standard SATA data interfaces and that chassis routing space accommodates the internal harness layout.

Thermals Noise and Power Draw

The passive cable assembly adds no active cooling requirement and generates no audible noise during operation. Power delivery follows the host controller specification, so draw depends entirely on the attached drives and the RAID card's own output capability.

Questions about this item

What connectors come attached to the cable and what must be supplied separately?

The cable has a single SFF8654 SlimSAS 4i plug on one end and four SATA connectors on the other; drives, a RAID controller with a matching port and any mounting hardware are not included.

How do I decide which version or capacity of this cable to select?

Only one specification is offered — a 24Gbps fanout supporting SAS 4.0 — so the choice is simply whether your controller uses an SFF8654 4i port and you need four SATA links.

What does the 24Gbps rating mean when the cable is installed in a server?

It indicates the maximum aggregate bandwidth across the four lanes when connected to a SAS 4.0 controller, allowing each attached SATA drive to operate at its native speed without the cable becoming a bottleneck.
