Connects a Mini SAS HD SFF-8644 port to four SFF-8482 drives with included 4-pin power over 100 cm

  • Connects Mini SAS HD to four SAS drives using SFF-8644 to SFF-8482 interface
  • Supports 6 Gb/s to 12 Gb/s bandwidth meeting SAS 2.1 and 3.0 specifications
  • Includes 4-pin power cable for direct drive power delivery
  • 100 cm length provides flexible server and storage chassis routing
  • Weighs 150 g for lightweight cable management

SFF-8644 breakout cable with power

This one-metre cable splits a Mini SAS HD SFF-8644 host port into four SFF-8482 29-pin SAS connectors and includes a 4-pin power lead. It carries 6 Gb/s to 12 Gb/s signals per SAS 2.1 and 3.0 specifications. The assembly weighs 150 g and is finished in black.

Suits direct-attached SAS drives.

Builders connecting up to four SAS hard disks or SSDs to a single SFF-8644 port will find the pinout and integrated power convenient. It is not for backplanes that accept only SATA 7-pin data connectors or that lack a 4-pin power feed. Systems requiring a different host-side mini-SAS variant will need another cable.

SFF-8644 to four SFF-8482 with 4-pin power

The host connector is SFF-8644; each of the four drive ends is a 29-pin SFF-8482 receptacle. A 4-pin power cable runs the full 100 cm length alongside the data lanes. This combination of interfaces and the integrated power lead is the specification that determines fit.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the SFF-8644 end and the four SFF-8482 connectors, and where does the 4-pin power plug go?

Plug the single SFF-8644 connector into the controller or backplane port, then attach each of the four 29-pin SFF-8482 ends to individual SAS drives; the included 4-pin power cable must be connected to a Molex or SATA power lead from the PSU to supply the drives.

What upkeep will the cable and its connectors need over time?

No scheduled maintenance is required; periodically check that the latch on the SFF-8644 plug and the four SFF-8482 sockets remain fully seated and free of dust, and replace the assembly if any connector shows bent pins or cracked housing.

At what point does the 100 cm length limit signal integrity at 12 Gb/s?

The 100 cm assembly is built to meet SAS 2.1 and proposed SAS 3.0 specifications up to 12 Gb/s, so the practical limit is the cable’s rated bandwidth rather than its length; sustained loads at 12 Gb/s stay within spec.
