Vszerda SFF-8644 to SFF-8088 SAS cable 3m 10ft 28AWG 100-Ohm 6Gbps

SKU CH-T0DB-0EYXD

Connects SFF-8644 to SFF-8088 ports with 28AWG twinaxial wire at 6.0 Gbps per lane over 10 feet

  • 6 Gbps per lane for fast RAID and server transfers
  • SFF-8644 to SFF-8088 connects HD Mini-SAS to Mini-SAS gear
  • 100 Ohm impedance with 28 AWG twinaxial wire for signal integrity
  • 3 metre length suits rack-to-rack or desk-to-rack runs
  • SAS 2.1 and SAS 3.0 compliant with per-unit 6 Gbps certification

Vszerda SFF-8644 to SFF-8088 SAS cable

This new Vszerda cable connects SFF-8644 ports to SFF-8088 ports over a three-metre run. It uses 28 AWG twinaxial eight-pair wire with a 100 Ohm impedance. The assembly is tested to Serial Attached SCSI 6.0 Gbps before shipment. It suits RAID systems, data-centres, servers, workstations and desktops.

Suits external Mini-SAS to HD Mini-SAS links

The cable is fully compliant with SAS 2.1 and SAS 3.0 interface specifications. It serves installers who need a certified external hybrid connection between those two connector types. Builders who require internal-only routing or a different connector pairing should look elsewhere.

6.0 Gbps per lane certified to SAS 2.1 and 3.0

This single specification decides whether the part fits the link budget. The cable guarantees SAS 2.1 drive performance at that rate across the 26-pin interface. If the target subsystem demands a different certified data rate, this cable will not meet the requirement.

Highlights

  • 6 Gbps per lane for fast RAID and server transfers

Questions about this item

Does the 100-Ohm 28AWG cable run hot or draw extra power during all-day SAS 6.0 Gbps transfers?

The cable is passive twinaxial copper, so it generates no heat of its own and adds no power draw; only the connected controllers consume power.

Which controller ports must I already have to plug in the SFF-8644 and SFF-8088 ends?

You need one HD Mini-SAS SFF-8644 port and one legacy Mini-SAS SFF-8088 port, each wired for SAS 2.1 or 3.0 operation.

Will this 3-metre link slow down my older SAS 2.0 RAID enclosure that only supports 3.0 Gbps per lane?

The cable is certified for 6.0 Gbps per lane and fully backward compatible, so the enclosure will simply run at its native 3.0 Gbps rate.
