Mini SAS HD SFF-8088 8X 68P Cable

This Mini SAS HD SFF-8088 cable connects servers and storage arrays using an 8X 68-pin male connector that splits into two 26-pin male ends. It is built for administrators who need reliable external links between SAS hosts and expansion enclosures. The 200-centimetre length gives flexibility for rack layouts.

Build integration and signal integrity

The shielded construction protects high-speed data transfer from electromagnetic interference in dense equipment racks. Male-to-male terminals plug directly into compatible SFF-8088 ports on controllers and backplanes without gender changers. The Y-split design lets one host port serve two target devices, reducing the number of host adapters required.

Sustained operation in enterprise environments

Designed for 24/7 uptime, the cable maintains stable throughput during continuous backup, replication and cloud storage workloads. Heavy shielding preserves signal quality over the full 200-centimetre run under constant traffic. It suits data-centre deployments where link reliability matters more than short-burst speed.

Questions about this item

What length is the cable and will it reach across a full rack?

The cable is 200 cm long, giving enough reach for typical rack-to-rack or rack-to-array runs in a data centre.

Does the Mini SAS HD SFF-8088 connector generate heat or draw power during continuous operation?

The cable is passive with no active electronics, so it produces no heat and draws no power beyond the signal carried by the SAS link.

What ports must my server and storage array already have for this cable to work?

Both ends need SFF-8088 ports — one 68-pin 8X receptacle on the server or RAID controller and two 26-pin receptacles on the storage side.
