Two-Pack SAS Breakout Cable

The Vszerda 2 Pack provides a pair of 0.5-metre Mini SAS HD SFF-8643 to SFF-8087 cables for connecting 12 Gbps controllers to legacy backplanes. Each assembly uses 36-pin male-to-male connectors and ships as a matched set for dual-port HBAs or redundant paths.

12 Gbps Headroom and Protocol Limits

Rated at 12 Gbps with 100 Ohm impedance, the cables carry full SAS 3.0 bandwidth while remaining compliant with SAS 2.1 equipment. The 30 AWG twin-axial construction keeps skew low, but the half-metre length restricts routing to adjacent trays or within a single chassis.

Thin Build for Dense Racks

Twin-axial geometry yields a slim, flexible profile that eases cable management in crowded server bays. Sideband pins are present for enclosure management traffic, and the SFF-8643 high-density ends save panel space compared with older SFF-8087-only links.

Questions about this item

Will the SFF-8643 ends plug into my existing SFF-8087 backplane without an adapter?

No — the cable connects an SFF-8643 controller port to an SFF-8087 drive backplane, so the SFF-8643 end must go into the controller and the SFF-8087 end into the backplane.

How can I verify the 12 Gbps link is active after I connect the cable?

Check the controller BIOS or OS utility; it should report a negotiated 12 Gbps link on each of the 36 pins with no errors.

Does the 2-pack include any brackets, screws or drive trays?

Only the two 0.5 m Mini SAS HD SFF-8643 to SFF-8087 cables are included; mounting hardware and drive trays are not supplied.
