Blue 1 metre cable with single SFF8654 74pin plug splitting to two SFF8087 SAS connectors

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK SlimSAS SFF8654 8i 74Pin to 2×SAS SFF8087 Cable 12Gbps 32AWG 85ohm 1M

SKU CH-HM6T-FY4JX

Converts a single SFF8654 8i 74pin SlimSAS port to dual SFF8087 SAS interfaces with 12Gbps bandwidth, 85ohm impedance and 32AWG copper for reliable multidrive expansion

  • Breakout cable converts one SFF8654 port to dual SFF8087 SAS ports
  • 85ohm impedance control maintains signal integrity and reduces crosstalk
  • 32AWG pure copper conductors deliver stable 12Gbps bandwidth
  • Anti-misplug housing prevents reverse insertion during installation
  • 1meter length allows neat internal routing in rackmount servers

Internal breakout cable for server storage expansion

This SMUGDESK cable adapts a single SFF8654 8i 74pin SlimSAS port into two independent SFF8087 SAS ports. It is built for administrators and integrators who need multidrive SAS connectivity inside rackmount servers or highdensity workstations. The 1meter length supports tidy internal routing in standard chassis layouts.

12Gbps bandwidth with 85ohm impedance control

The 32AWG lowloss copper conductors maintain strict 85ohm impedance matching to preserve signal integrity at 12Gbps. This specification determines whether the cable can sustain enterprise SAS HDD, SSD and RAID controller workloads without crosstalk or attenuation. Verify that your controller and backplane operate at this speed before purchase.

Passive design produces no heat or noise

As a passive copper assembly the cable adds no active cooling requirement and generates zero acoustic output. Power draw is limited to the signal circuitry of the connected SAS devices themselves. The antimisplug housing prevents reverse insertion that could damage ports during maintenance.

Questions about this item

What does the 12Gbps rating mean when the cable is installed in a server?

The 12Gbps rating lets each SFF8087 port run at full SAS 12Gbps speed, so two drives or backplanes can transfer data simultaneously without bottlenecking the single SFF8654 8i 74pin connection.

How does the 85ohm impedance spec affect real-world signal quality?

The controlled 85ohm impedance matches SAS signalling requirements, minimising reflections and crosstalk so the 12Gbps link stays stable across the full 1metre run.

What clearance is needed for the anti-misplug housing on the SFF8654 8i 74pin end?

The anti-misplug housing adds only a few millimetres beyond the standard SFF8654 8i 74pin connector profile, so it fits any chassis that accepts a regular SlimSAS plug.
