Mini-SAS breakout cable

The BUCIER Mini-SAS SFF-8087 to 4×SFF-8482 breakout cable connects a single 36-pin SFF-8087 host port on a RAID controller or motherboard to four SFF-8482 targets. Each target includes a SATA 7-pin data connector and a 15-pin power adapter. The cable is 3.3 ft long and rated for 6 gigabits per second.

Integrated power adapters

Every SFF-8482 branch carries its own SATA 15-pin power connector, so drives receive both data and power from the same assembly. This removes the need for separate power cables from the PSU to each drive. The 30 AWG conductors keep the bundle thin and flexible for routing inside tight chassis.

For direct-attached SAS/SATA drives

This breakout suits builders attaching up to four SAS or SATA hard drives or SSDs directly to an internal SFF-8087 host port. It will not work with SAS drives connected through a backplane using the SFF-8087 connector, nor with configurations that require a middle SAS pin on the target side.

Questions about this item

Will the SFF-8482 connectors or the 30 AWG cable need replacement after heavy use?

The cable uses 30 AWG copper conductors and SFF-8482 connectors with integrated SATA 15-pin power adapters; no user-serviceable parts are specified, so plan to replace the entire assembly if a connector fails.

What throughput limit appears first when the link runs continuously at 6 Gbps?

Each SFF-8482 leg is rated for 6 Gbps, so the per-drive SAS 6 Gbps ceiling is the first bottleneck under sustained transfer.

How much heat or noise does the breakout cable add when all four drives run all day?

The passive copper cable adds no active cooling or noise; only the drives and controller generate heat, while the 30 AWG wires carry the 6 Gbps signals without extra power draw.
