Connectivity kit

This two-pack provides SFF-8087 to SFF-8482 breakout cables for linking a host controller to four drives. Each assembly carries a 36-pin Mini-SAS plug on one end and four SFF-8482 connectors with integrated SATA power adapters on the other. The cables suit builders adding internal storage to a server or workstation chassis.

Host-to-target wiring

The SFF-8087 male connector attaches to a SAS HBA or motherboard port, while each SFF-8482 target plugs into a drive backplane or individual disk. A SATA 15-pin power lead accompanies every drive connector, so external power cables must be routed to each adapter. Data runs at 6 gigabits per second per drive.

Signal integrity

Thirty AWG conductors keep the half-metre runs flexible for tight routing inside populated cases. Shielded construction supports the rated throughput without extra cooling or active components. The passive design draws no power of its own beyond what the attached drives consume.

Questions about this item

What does the 6 Gb/s per drive figure mean when the cable is installed in a server?

Each of the four SFF-8482 connectors can transfer data at up to 6 Gb/s, so four SATA or SAS drives attached to the breakout share the 36-pin SFF-8087 host link at that rate per drive.

Which SAS standard does the SFF-8087 to SFF-8482 interface implement, and what throughput does it limit?

The cable is built to the SAS 3 specification on the 36-pin SFF-8087 host side and breaks out to four 6 Gb/s SFF-8482 targets, capping each drive at 6 Gb/s.

What clearance and power connections are required to mount the breakout ends?

Each SFF-8482 tail needs a standard SATA 7-pin data socket plus a 15-pin SATA power plug, so allow room for both cables per drive and route the 0.5 m length from the controller to the backplane.
