  • Meets SAS 2.1 6Gb/s specification with high-density SFF-8643 connectors
  • Supports future SAS 3.0 12Gb/s speeds through next-generation connector design

Connector bridge for SAS/SATA adapters

This new cable links a Mini SAS SFF-8087 port to a Mini SAS High Density SFF-8643 port. It connects a SAS or SATA adapter to a SAS or SATA backplane inside a server or storage enclosure. The 50 cm length suits typical internal routing.

SAS 2.1 rated at 6Gb/s per lane

The SFF-8643 connector follows the SAS 2.1 standard and meets the 6Gb/s specification. The same connector family is designated for the future SAS 3.0 standard at 12Gb/s, though cable materials may change. Current use is limited to 6Gb/s operation.

SFF-8643 versus SFF-8644 port match

The cable terminates in an SFF-8643 plug, which fits the internal ports on cards such as the LSI 9207-8i and several Adaptec models listed in the compatibility notice. It will not mate with the external SFF-8644 ports found on controllers like the LSI 9202-16e.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 50 cm length or a different size for my server chassis?

The 50 cm length suits typical 1U to 2U rack layouts where the RAID adapter and backplane sit close together; measure your exact run before ordering.

What does the 6 Gb/s SAS 2.1 rating mean once the cable is installed?

Each of the four lanes carries up to 6 Gb/s, so a SFF-8643 to SFF-8087 link delivers 24 Gb/s aggregate throughput for SAS or SATA drives.

Does the SFF-8643 connector limit me to 6 Gb/s or can it handle 12 Gb/s SAS 3.0?

The SFF-8643 connector is specified for SAS 3.0 at 12 Gb/s, so the same cable will support next-generation controllers without replacement.
