Vszerda SFF-8644 to SFF-8088 SAS cable 3.00 m 6.0 Gbps

SKU CH-EQS1-38RJE

A 3-metre external copper cable linking SFF-8644 and SFF-8088 SAS connectors at 6.0 Gbps per lane

  • TypeExternal Copper SAS Cable
  • Color1PC
  • Length3.00
  • Connector Number4
  • Terminal GenderMale-to-Female
  • Speed6 gigabits_per_second
  • Connects SFF-8644 to SFF-8088 devices
  • 00 metre length fits rack layouts
  • 0 Gbps per lane for SAS 2.1 performance
  • 100-Ohm impedance with 28AWG twinaxial wire
  • Tested to Serial Attached SCSI 6.0 Gbps standard

Connection Purpose

This Vszerda cable links an SFF-8644 port to an SFF-8088 Mini-SAS connector. It serves servers, workstations and RAID systems that need a 6.0 Gbps external SAS path. The 3.00-metre length suits rack-to-rack or chassis-to-JBOD runs. It is not for internal backplane wiring or direct drive attachment.

Port Verification

Confirm that the controller exposes an SFF-8644 receptacle and the target enclosure presents an SFF-8088 socket. Both ends are male-to-female, so gender alignment is fixed. The link is certified to SAS 2.1 and 3.0 specifications at 6.0 Gbps per lane. No other SAS speeds or connector types are supported by this assembly.

Build Integration

The 28 AWG twinaxial construction with 100-ohm impedance keeps the cable thin for dense cable-management trays. It occupies a single external port on each device, leaving remaining ports free for additional expansion shelves. The shielded jacket resists EMI in crowded data-centre aisles. No active electronics or power adapters are required.

Questions about this item

Does the 3.00 m cable arrive as a single unit or do I need to order extra connectors?

The cable is supplied as one assembled SFF-8644 to SFF-8088 unit with both male and female ends fitted, so no separate connectors are required.

Should I pick the 28 AWG version or a thicker gauge for a 6.0 Gbps SAS link?

The 28 AWG twinaxial construction is specified for the 6.0 Gbps per lane rating and meets the 100 Ohm impedance target for SAS 2.1 and 3.0 compliance.

What does the 6.0 Gbps figure mean when the cable is plugged into a RAID controller?

Each of the eight lanes carries up to 6.0 Gbps, giving the full SAS 2.1 bandwidth the controller expects for external drive enclosures.
