  • Achieve 6 Gbps throughput under SAS 2.0 specifications
  • Insert and remove easily thanks to upgraded push-button on external connector
  • Secure internal connections with locking latch on 36-pin plug
  • Use with SAS or SATA storage systems and drive bays

External-to-internal SAS link

This Vszerda cable pair connects an external 26-pin SFF-8088 port to an internal 36-pin SFF-8087 connector. Each 1-metre assembly uses 30AWG conductors rated for SAS 2.0 at 6Gbps. The external plug has a push-button release while the internal end locks with a latch. Two cables are included for dual-channel or redundant paths.

Replaces loose adapter chains

A single cable removes the need for separate SFF-8088 and SFF-8087 leads joined by a coupler. The direct pin-out preserves 6Gbps signal integrity across the 1-metre run. The jump is worth it when an external HBA or RAID controller must drive internal SAS or SATA drive bays without adding insertion loss or extra failure points.

Fits standard SAS/SATA backplanes

The SFF-8087 end plugs into common internal backplanes or expander boards while the SFF-8088 end mates with external controller ports. No extra power or active circuitry is required. The 1-metre length suits typical server chassis routing and leaves the external port accessible for rack-to-rack or JBOD links.

Questions about this item

Will the external 26-pin SFF-8088 connector fit my server's external SAS port?

The cable uses a standard 26-pin SFF-8088 male Mini-SAS plug with an upgraded press button for easier insertion into any compatible external SAS port.

How do I connect the internal 36-pin SFF-8087 end to my drive bay backplane?

Align the 36-pin SFF-8087 male plug with the internal Mini-SAS receptacle and push until the locking latch clicks securely into place.

Does the 30AWG cable construction affect long-term reliability at 6Gbps data rates?

The 30AWG wire gauge meets SAS 2.0 specifications for 6Gbps operation over the 1m length, and the pair includes two cables for spare or dual-port configurations.
