Connectivity Bridge

This cable pair connects a host controller with an SFF-8643 port to a backplane or expander using the older SFF-8087 interface. It serves system integrators upgrading storage links inside servers or workstations without replacing the entire chassis.

6 Gbps Ceiling

The assembly is rated for 6 Gbps data rates with 100 Ohm impedance over 30 AWG copper conductors. That ceiling matches SAS 2.1 and 6 Gbps SATA devices; any 12 Gbps drive attached will negotiate down to this speed.

Dense Chassis Ready

At 0.8 metres the foldable twin-axial design eases routing in tight bays and promotes airflow. The length suits adjacent trays in standard depth enclosures; longer runs to distant JBODs or full-height racks will require a different cable.

Questions about this item

What does the 6 Gbps rating mean once the cable is installed in a server?

The cable supports SAS 2.1 at 6 Gbps per lane, so each connected drive can transfer at up to 6 Gbps when the controller and backplane also run at that speed.

Which interface standard does the SFF-8643 to SFF-8087 link follow, and what does it limit?

It follows the SAS 2.1 specification at 6 Gbps; the link will not exceed 6 Gbps even if the drives or controller support 12 Gbps.

What clearance and bend radius does the 0.8 m twin-axial cable need inside a 1U chassis?

The 30 AWG twin-axial construction is fold-able and thin, allowing tight routing in dense 1U or 2U enclosures without blocking airflow.
