weastlinks SAS Cable SATA 7 Pin to 7 Pin 4SATA to 4SATA .5m 1.64ft

SKU CH-P425-7JN1A

Connects four SATA drives to a server backplane at 6 Gbps over a 0.5 m SAS cable

  • Supports hot-swap drive changes without powering down
  • 6 Gbps SATA III speed for fast data transfer
  • 5 m (1.64 ft) length fits tight server bays
  • Works with 10,000 rpm HDDs and SSDs
  • Four SATA 7-pin ports connect multiple drives at once

SATA III 6Gbps cable for multi-drive servers

This cable connects four SATA drives to a host controller using a single SAS-style 7-pin plug on each end. It is built for administrators who need a short, high-speed link between a backplane and a RAID card in a server chassis. The 0.5 metre length keeps cable routing tidy in dense enclosures. Hot-swap support means drives can be replaced without powering down the system.

Passive copper link with no active cooling

The assembly draws no external power and adds no fan noise to the rack. Signal integrity is maintained up to the SATA III 6 Gbps specification across the 1.64 foot run. Because it is a passive copper cable, heat output is negligible and limited to the connectors themselves. No additional power budget is required beyond what the host controller already supplies.

Straight-to-straight connectors with locking latches

Each end uses a symmetrical straight SATA 7-pin head fitted with a metal latch to resist accidental unplugging during vibration. The four-lane breakout fans out to four individual SATA 7-pin plugs for direct drive attachment. The 0.5 metre option suits tight 1U or 2U trays; a 1 metre variant is also available for larger bays. No angled or right-angle heads are included in this configuration.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the 4SATA-to-4SATA cable to four drives, and which step is often missed?

Align each 7-pin connector with the drive and motherboard ports, then press straight in until the metal retention clips click; the step most people miss is confirming every clip has latched before routing the cable.

What upkeep will this .5 m cable need over time?

No scheduled maintenance is required; inspect the connectors occasionally for dust or bent pins and reseat them if transfer errors appear.

At what point does the 6 Gbps link become the bottleneck during sustained transfers?

The 6 Gbps SAS/SATA interface caps throughput first, so sequential reads from 10,000 rpm drives will hit that ceiling before the cable length does.
