Server Storage Connectivity

This 0.5-metre Mini SAS cable uses dual SFF-8087 male connectors to link RAID controllers, HBAs and server backplanes. It supports SAS 6.0Gbps and SATA 3.0 protocols for enterprise storage arrays. The two-pack suits redundant or multi-channel deployments.

Signal Integrity

A 100-ohm Twinax construction with full EMI shielding reduces crosstalk in dense chassis. Gold-plated contacts and reinforced strain relief withstand continuous 24/7 operation. The short 1.6ft length keeps internal routing tidy and airflow unimpeded.

Connector Compatibility

The 36-position SFF-8087 interface fits only matching Mini SAS ports; it will not plug into standard SATA or eSATA headers. Buyers needing direct drive-to-motherboard SATA links or longer runs must choose a different cable assembly.

Questions about this item

How do I install the SFF-8087 connectors onto a RAID card or backplane, and what step is often missed?

Align the keyed SFF-8087 male plugs with the female ports on the RAID controller or backplane, push straight in until the latch clicks, and secure the side screws if present; the step often missed is verifying both latches are fully engaged before powering on.

What maintenance or replacement will the cable need later?

The gold-plated contacts and 100-ohm twinax construction are rated for continuous 24/7 operation; no scheduled maintenance is required, but inspect for bent pins or jacket damage if the server is moved, and replace the cable if errors appear.

What limit appears first under sustained 6Gbps throughput?

The 0.5-metre AWG30 twinax assembly is specified for up to 6.0Gbps with a temperature range of -20 to 80°C; sustained heavy workloads will hit the cable’s thermal limit before signal degradation occurs.
