Connector compatibility
This cable bridges a low-profile SFF-8654 8i 74-pin port to two SFF-8643 8i 36-pin connectors. It is built for servers and storage arrays that need a direct link between newer Slimline hosts and existing Mini SAS HD backplanes or RAID controllers. The male-to-male design removes the need for extra adapters in compatible chassis.
Installation notes
The low-profile SFF-8654 end fits tight server bays where standard connectors cannot seat. Both 90-degree SFF-8643 tails route close to the board, helping cable management in dense enclosures. No tools are required, but the stiff braided sheath can resist sharp bends; plan the routing before locking the latch on each end.
Sustained throughput
Each channel is rated for 24 Gbps under the SAS 4.0 specification, so aggregate bandwidth scales with the number of active lanes. The braided shielding protects signal integrity during continuous heavy I/O typical of database or SAN workloads. Performance will hold as long as the attached controller and drives also operate at SAS 4.0 speeds.

Questions about this item
How can I verify the 24 Gbps per channel link is active after connecting the SFF-8654 8i 74P and SFF-8643 8i 36P ends?
Check the controller BIOS or OS utility for a negotiated 24 Gbps link speed on each lane and run a sustained read-write test to confirm throughput.
What ships with the Vszerda SAS 4.0 cable and what must I source separately?
The 80 cm male-to-male harness with low-profile SFF-8654 8i to dual 90-degree SFF-8643 8i connectors is included; brackets, screws, and controller cards are not.
Which version should I choose for a 24 Gbps SAS 4.0 link between an SFF-8654 8i 74P port and SFF-8643 8i 36P ports?
This single model is built for SAS 4.0 at 24 Gbps per channel with an 80 cm length; select it when your hardware matches the SFF-8654 8i and SFF-8643 8i interfaces.
