External SAS Link

This Vszerda cable connects two SFF-8088 Mini SAS ports for external storage links. It uses a 26-pin male-to-male design with heavy-duty metal backshells. Each of the four channels is individually shielded and wrapped in double EMI/RFI protection. The assembly measures 3.28 ft and is rated for 10 Gbps per channel.

Server and JBOD Builders

Administrators wiring a SAS HBA to an external drive enclosure or JBOD will find the shielding and fixed length convenient. The cable is intended for indoor rack or tower use and carries a 6 Gbps band rating alongside the 10 Gbps headline figure. Installers who need a different Mini SAS pinout or a longer reach should select another part.

26-Pin SFF-8088 Interface

The single deciding specification is the SFF-8088 26-pin connector on both ends. Only equipment that presents this exact external Mini SAS port can use the cable. Verify the HBA and subsystem port type before ordering.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the 10 Gbps link is active after connecting the SFF-8088 cable to my SAS HBA?

Check the HBA BIOS or OS utility for a negotiated 10 Gbps link speed on each of the four lanes and confirm zero CRC errors during a sustained read-write test.

What ships with the Vszerda SFF-8088 cable and what must I source separately?

The package contains one 3.28 ft male-to-male SFF-8088 cable with metal backshells; you must provide the SAS HBA and drive subsystem with matching SFF-8088 ports.

Which length should I choose for a rack-to-rack SAS link between a host adapter and a JBOD?

At 3.28 ft this cable suits adjacent rack enclosures; for wider spacing select a longer SFF-8088 assembly with the same 26-pin 4-lane construction.
