A flat 70CM cable with one 74-pin connector splitting to two 38-pin connectors

Vszerda

Vszerda MCIO x8 to 2x MCIO x4 Cable 70CM

SKU CH-Q9QZ-GHPMJ

Connects one MCIO x8 port to two MCIO x4 ports for PCIe Gen5 storage expansion up to 32GT/s over 70cm with 74-pin to dual 38-pin SFF-TA-1016 connectors

  • Supports PCIe Gen5 speeds up to 32GT/s for high-bandwidth data transfer
  • Single 74-pin MCIO x8 connector splits into two 38-pin MCIO x4 ports
  • Advanced shielding maintains signal integrity across the 70CM cable length
  • Mini Cooledge IO design saves space and improves airflow in dense builds
  • Double straight connectors enable straightforward plug-and-play installation

PCIe Gen5 MCIO x8 split cable

This Vszerda cable converts a single MCIO x8 port into two MCIO x4 connections using the PCIe Gen5 standard at 32GT/s. It targets server, storage-array and high-density computing builders who need to expand one high-bandwidth lane into dual links without adding host adapters.

Signal integrity over 70 cm

High-quality conductors and advanced shielding limit interference and loss across the full 70CM run, preserving 32GT/s stability in dense chassis. The Mini Cooledge IO form factor saves space and aids airflow, helping thermals in tightly packed racks.

Double-straight SFF-TA-1016 connectors

One 74-pin and two 38-pin SFF-TA-1016 plugs enable straight-through routing for simpler cable management. The plug-and-play design requires no extra drivers or configuration, reducing deployment time in multi-device environments.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the 74-pin MCIO x8 end to the two 38-pin MCIO x4 ports?

Align the 74-pin SFF-TA-1016 connector with the x8 receptacle and seat it fully; then plug each 38-pin SFF-TA-1016 connector into its matching x4 port, keeping the double straight heads in line to avoid pin damage.

What upkeep does the 70CM shielded cable need over time?

Inspect the shielding and both Mini Cooledge IO connectors quarterly for dust or bent pins; reseat if signal errors appear, but no scheduled replacement is required.

At what point does the PCIe Gen5 32GT/s link hit its practical ceiling?

The 70CM length and dual x4 split define the first limit; beyond this distance or with additional adapters the 32GT/s signal integrity degrades.
