Vszerda CS0034 SFF-8643 to 4x SATA cable 0.5m

Mini SAS SFF-8643 to 4x SATA cable

The Vszerda CS0034 is a 0.5 metre internal cable that connects a Mini SAS SFF-8643 host port on a motherboard or RAID controller to four SATA hard drives. It uses 30AWG copper conductors and is rated for 12 gigabits per second data transfer. The SFF-8643 end has a male latch connector while the four SATA ends are female ports. The cable is black with blue accents.

Builders with SFF-8643 controllers needing four

This cable suits systems where the host side presents an SFF-8643 Mini SAS port and the target drives use standard SATA interfaces. It will not work if your backplane or controller uses the SFF-8644 connector instead of SFF-8643. Buyers who need a longer reach or a different Mini SAS variant should look elsewhere.

Sustained 12 Gb/s throughput over copper

The 30AWG copper conductors maintain the rated 12 gigabits per second speed across the 0.5 metre length during continuous read and write workloads. The short run minimises signal loss compared with longer cables. The SFF-8643 design supports higher port density and a smooth transition path toward 13 Gb/s operation without changing the physical connector.
