Vszerda 1 m Mini SAS 36-pin SFF-8087 to 4 SATA Braided Cable

SKU CH-E87S-9BH4G

Connects a controller SFF-8087 port to four SATA drives with 6Gb/s bandwidth and braided strain relief

  • Connects controller to four SATA drives via Mini SAS 36-pin SFF-8087
  • Supports 6Gb/s bandwidth per drive for high-throughput storage
  • Braided nylon sleeve and acetate tape provide strain relief and easy routing
  • Low-profile SATA connectors with stainless steel latches resist vibration disconnection
  • Compatible with hardware RAID controllers using PCIe 2.0 x8 lanes

Mini SAS breakout cable

This 1 m cable connects a RAID or PCIe controller with an SFF-8087 port to four SATA drives. It suits builders adding direct-attached storage to a server or workstation host bus adapter. The forward breakout design links one host interface to multiple target devices.

6 Gb/s per drive headroom

Each of the four SATA lanes supports up to 6 Gb/s bandwidth for high-throughput arrays. The cable shares performance across two PCIe 2.0 x8 lanes with compatible HBAs. It runs out when a controller lacks an SFF-8087 host port or when drives require a different interface.

Braided strain relief for routing

A woven mesh sheath covers half the length for easy routing inside a chassis. Acetate cloth tape over slim ribbon cables provides strain relief without rigidity. Low-profile SATA connectors feature stainless steel latches to prevent accidental disconnection. P1–P4 markers simplify identification after installation.

Questions about this item

Will this SFF-8087 breakout cable work with my older 3Ware 9650SE-8LPML controller card?

Yes, the cable is compatible with popular HBA cards such as the 3Ware 9650SE-8LPML and connects the SFF-8087 port to four SATA drives.

How can I verify the 6Gb/s link is active on each drive after installation?

Check the negotiated link speed in your RAID controller BIOS or operating system disk utility; each SATA port should report a 6Gb/s connection.

Does the 1 m braided cable include the four SATA data connectors, or must I buy them separately?

The cable integrates the SFF-8087 male connector and four SATA female connectors in a single assembly; no separate data connectors are required.
