Vszerda MCIO PCI-E 4i 38Pin Male to MCIO 4i SFF-TA-1016 Extender Cable 50cm

SKU CH-MAMC-QCMZ0

Extends MCIO 38-pin connections up to 50 cm with 24 Gbps bandwidth and SAS 3.0/4.0 support

  • High-speed transfers up to 24 Gbps for demanding workloads
  • 50 cm length gives flexible routing inside server chassis
  • Supports SAS 3.0/4.0 and PCIe Gen 3/4/5 standards
  • 38-pin MCIO connectors ensure secure high-density connections
  • 56 GT/s PAM4 signalling maintains signal integrity at speed

MCIO 4i 38-pin extender for SSDs

This 50 cm cable connects a PCI-E 4i 38-pin male MCIO port to an MCIO 4i SFF-TA-1016 receptacle. It is built for SSDs that use four-lane MCIO-to-MCIO links in servers, workstations and high-density storage arrays. The assembly supports SAS 3.0 and 4.0 alongside PCIe Gen 3, 4 and 5 signalling. Installers gain routing flexibility without changing the drive or backplane.

Signal integrity at 24 Gbps per lane

The cable is rated for 24 Gbps lane speed and 56 GT/s PAM4, matching the electrical requirements of SAS 4.0 and PCIe 5.0. Shielded construction and controlled impedance reduce crosstalk and insertion loss across the 50 cm run. Passive design means no active components to fail or consume power. Thermal load and acoustic profile are therefore negligible in normal rack airflow.

Rack routing without backplane redesign

The male-to-female layout lets technicians extend existing MCIO links between a controller card and a drive cage or between mid-plane modules. No additional power connectors or active retimers are required. The 50 cm length suits typical 1 U to 4 U chassis depths while keeping cable management tidy. Builders who need longer reaches or right-angle exits will need a different assembly.

Highlights

Questions about this item

How do I install the MCIO 38-pin male connector without bending the pins?

Align the keyed MCIO 38-pin male connector with the matching receptacle on the SSD or backplane and press straight in until the latch clicks; forcing it at an angle bends the dense pin field.

What maintenance or replacement will the MCIO extender cable need later?

The passive 50 cm cable has no moving parts or active components; inspect the MCIO SFF-TA-1016 connectors for dust or bent pins during routine server maintenance and replace only if physical damage appears.

What limit appears first under sustained 24 Gbps data transfer?

Signal integrity at 24 Gbps over the 50 cm length is the first limit; the cable supports SAS 3.0/4.0 and PCIe 5.0 PAM4 signalling, so thermal throttling or protocol overhead are not the bottleneck.
