External Mini SAS HD to SAS 2.0 Link

This 0.5-metre cable joins an SFF-8644 port to an SFF-8088 port using 26-pin male connectors on both ends. It carries 6.0 Gbps per lane over AWG30 twinaxial pairs with 100-Ohm impedance. The assembly is tested to SAS 2.1 and 3.0 specifications before shipment.

Suited For Direct Server Attach

The short length fits inside or between adjacent rack units where a controller and an external enclosure sit close together. Builds that need longer reach or a different connector pairing must choose another assembly.

Speed Rating Is The Deciding Spec

Each lane runs at 6.0 Gbps and the cable is certified for SAS 2.1 drive performance. If the target link requires a higher per-lane rate or a different signalling standard this cable will not meet the requirement.

Questions about this item

Will the SFF-8644 connector work with my older SAS 2.0 controller that uses SFF-8088?

The cable is fully compliant with SAS 2.1 and SAS 3.0 specifications and guarantees SAS 2.1 drive performance at 6.0 Gbps per lane, so it will operate correctly with your SAS 2.0 SFF-8088 equipment.

How can I verify the 6.0 Gbps link is active after connecting the cable?

The cable undergoes Serial Attached SCSI 6.0 Gbps test certification before shipment; once installed, your RAID controller or HBA should report a negotiated 6.0 Gbps link speed per lane.

Does the 0.5m package include both the SFF-8644 and SFF-8088 ends, or do I need a separate bracket?

The single cable assembly includes both the SFF-8644 and SFF-8088 male connectors; no additional brackets or adapters are required for a direct server-to-enclosure connection.
