MCIO 8i to SlimSAS LP 8i cable

This 50 cm adapter cable links a server motherboard or HBA RAID card with an MCIO 8i port to a SlimSAS low-profile backplane or expander. The 74-pin male-to-male design targets NVMe storage builds in racks, workstations and JBOD enclosures. It serves integrators who need a direct PCIe 4.0 path between host controller and drive bay.

Build quality and daily use

Twin-axial 30AWG conductors carry the signal inside dual shielding of aluminum foil and tinned copper braid to suppress EMI in dense chassis. Gold-plated contacts on both connectors resist corrosion through repeated mating cycles. The flexible PVC jacket and 0.5 m length allow tidy routing around drive cages without stressing ports or blocking airflow.

PCIe 4.0 x8 bandwidth decides fit

The link runs at 16.0 GT/s per lane for 64 GT/s aggregate throughput, roughly 128 GB/s bi-directional, and is backwards compatible with 2.0 and 3.0 devices. Buyers needing more lanes, a different connector pitch or a longer reach cannot use this part.

Questions about this item

What bandwidth does the PCIe 4.0 x8 link on this cable provide?

The cable supports PCIe 4.0 at 16.0 GT/s per lane, delivering 64 GT/s total bandwidth for the x8 link, which is approximately 128 GB/s bi-directional.

What clearance does the SlimSAS LP 8i connector need?

The cable terminates in a Slimline SAS (SFF-8654) Low Profile male connector, designed to fit tight spaces in server backplanes and HBA cards where standard-height connectors cannot.

How do I ensure the MCIO 8i end seats correctly on the motherboard?

Align the 74-pin MCIO 8i male connector with the motherboard port and press straight in until the latch clicks; the low-profile SlimSAS end connects the same way to the backplane or card.
