SKU CH-KG5Q-8SM3Y

Connects RAID cards and backplanes with SFF-8087 ports at 6 Gbps over a .5 m shielded assembly

  • High-speed 6 Gbps transfers for SAS or SATA drives
  • 5 m length fits tight server chassis
  • Braided mesh jacket shields four data lanes
  • 36-pin SFF-8087 connectors with stainless steel latch
  • Hot-swap ready for RAID, HBA and DAS systems

Internal Mini SAS Cable

The Vszerda SFF-8087 to SFF-8087 cable connects RAID controllers or host bus adapters to internal backplanes and hot-swap drive bays. It carries four SAS lanes at up to 6 Gbps and is also compatible with SATA drives. The 0.5 m length suits compact server and storage chassis.

Server and storage builders

This cable suits administrators wiring internal SAS or SATA arrays in rackmount servers, direct-attached storage enclosures or workstation backplanes. The braided mesh jacket and tape strain relief protect the ribbon cable during routing. Buyers needing external links, longer reach or higher signalling rates should choose a different assembly.

36-pin SFF-8087 connector with stainless steel latch

Each end uses a rugged 36-pin SFF-8087 plug secured by a stainless steel latch that resists vibration in hot-swap environments. Individually shielded conductors and a 100-ohm impedance maintain signal integrity across the 1.6 ft run. Match the connector keying to your controller and backplane before ordering.

Questions about this item

Will this .5 m SFF-8087 cable work with my older 3 Gbps SAS backplane?

Yes, the cable supports up to 6 Gbps and is backward-compatible with 3 Gbps SAS or SATA equipment, so it will function correctly on your existing backplane.

How can I verify the 6 Gbps link is active after connecting the cable to my RAID card?

Check the RAID controller BIOS or management utility; it should report a 6 Gbps negotiated speed on each of the four lanes when the drives are detected.

Does the package include only the 36-pin SFF-8087 to SFF-8087 cable, or are drive trays and mounting screws supplied as well?

Only the 0.5 m braided cable with 36-pin connectors is included; drive trays, screws, and any RAID or HBA cards must be purchased separately.
