Dual-Port SAS Adapter for Server Storage

This Vszerda adapter connects external Mini SAS SFF-8088 devices to internal SFF-8643 host connectors. It serves administrators expanding direct-attached storage on servers or workstations using standard SAS cabling. The dual-port design links two drive paths through a single bracket assembly.

12 Gb/s Transfer Rate Over SFF-8643

The adapter supports the 12 Gb/s Mini SAS data transfer rate defined by the SAS 3.0 specification. It uses the high-density SFF-8643 interface on the host side and SFF-8088 on the device side. This specification determines whether the part matches your controller and backplane speed requirements.

Passive Operation With Two Bracket Options

As a passive PCBA, the unit draws no auxiliary power and adds no active cooling noise to the chassis. It ships with both low-profile and standard-profile mounting brackets for flexible installation in 1U or full-height slots. Thermal output is negligible under normal data throughput.

Questions about this item

What does the 12Gb/s transfer rate mean for my server?

The adapter supports the SAS 3.0 specification at 12Gb/s per lane, so each connected drive can run at full SAS 3.0 speed when the controller and cables also support 12Gb/s.

Which SAS standard do the SFF-8088 and SFF-8643 connectors follow?

The SFF-8088 external and SFF-8643 internal connectors comply with the SAS 2.1 high-density specification and are forward-compatible with the SAS 3.0 12Gb/s standard.

What brackets are included for mounting in a chassis?

Both a low-profile bracket and a standard-profile bracket are supplied, allowing installation in either low-profile or full-height PCI slots.
