Slimline SFF-8654 4i to MCIO 38-pin cable

This half-metre cable links a Slimline SFF-8654 4i male connector to an MCIO 4i 38-pin male plug. It is built for data-centre, networking and telecom gear that runs SAS, PCIe or Ethernet protocols. The 0.5 m length suits tight chassis layouts where longer runs would add clutter.

Installing the cable in dense systems

The male-to-male design plugs directly into board or card edges without extra adapters. Shock-resistant shielding helps the assembly survive vibration in rack environments. Take care to align the keyed MCIO latch; forcing the connector can bend the dense 38-pin contacts and cause intermittent links.

Capacity headroom for modern protocols

Rated at 54 Gbps, the cable supports SAS 3.0 and 4.0 as well as PCIe Gen 3, 4 and 5 signalling. It also carries 25G Ethernet and 56 GT/s PAM4 traffic. Workloads that exceed those line rates or require longer reaches will need active optics or a different cable class.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the 54 Gbps link is active after connecting the SFF-8654 4i and MCIO 38-pin ends?

Verify the link speed in your HBA or RAID controller BIOS; it should report 54 Gbps for the SAS 4.0 or PCIe 5.0 connection.

What comes in the box and do I need a separate bracket or driver?

Only the 0.5 m black shock-resistant cable is included; no bracket, driver or extra hardware is required.

Which version of this cable should I choose for a PCIe 5.0 backplane?

The CY-SF-078 model supports PCIe Gen 5 and SAS 4.0 at 54 Gbps, matching a PCIe 5.0 backplane.
