Server-grade SAS cable for storage arrays

This Vszerda cable connects a PCIe 4.0 Slimline SAS SFF 8654 4i 38Pin port to a Mini SAS HD SFF 8643 device. It is built for enterprise servers and storage arrays that require a 12Gbps per channel link. The 1 metre black cable uses 30AWG copper conductors for low resistance. A 10-ohm impedance design helps maintain signal integrity.

Check connector types and lane count before ordering

Verify that your controller or backplane presents a Slimline SAS SFF 8654 4i interface with 38 pins. The matching end must be a Mini SAS HD SFF 8643 receptacle. Ensure the system supports the 12Gbps SAS signalling rate per lane. Confirm the 1 metre length fits your rack routing without excess slack or tension.

Replaces older Mini SAS HD interconnects

This assembly upgrades a direct SFF 8643-to-SFF 8643 link when the host side moves to the newer Slimline SFF 8654 4i form factor. The jump is worth it when the controller or backplane adopts the 38-pin connector for higher density. It does not serve builds that retain only legacy SFF 8643 ports on both ends.

Questions about this item

Does the 1 m cable include both the SFF-8654 38-pin and SFF-8643 connectors, or must I buy them separately?

The cable arrives fully terminated with a Slimline SAS SFF-8654 4i 38-pin plug on one end and a Mini SAS HD SFF-8643 plug on the other, so no separate connectors are required.

Should I choose the .5 m or 1 m length for a standard server rack?

Both .5 m and 1 m lengths are offered; pick the shorter run for adjacent backplanes and the longer one when routing across a wider chassis or between neighbouring racks.

What does the 12 Gbps per channel rating mean for my RAID array?

Each of the four lanes can move up to 12 Gbps, giving the array enough bandwidth for multi-drive SAS SSD or HDD sets without the cable becoming the bottleneck.
