Slim SAS 38-pin to HD Mini SAS 36-pin cable, 50 cm

BUCIER

BUCIER Slim SAS 4.0 SFF-8654 4i 38pin to HD Mini SAS 4i SFF-8643 36pin Cable 50cm

SKU CH-K0EA-7WJ2E

Connects a Slim SAS 4.0 controller to an HD Mini SAS 3.0 backplane at 12 Gbps per channel over 50 cm

Cable Length 1m

  • Slim SFF-8654 connector saves device space
  • Four 12Gbps SAS channels for high throughput
  • 50cm length fits compact server builds
  • Meets SAS 4.0 and PCIe Gen3 specs
  • Connects Slim SAS 38pin host to HD Mini SAS 36pin target

Slim SAS 4.0 cable for server backplanes

This 50cm cable links a Slim SAS 4i 38pin controller to an HD Mini SAS 4i 36pin backplane. It suits servers, data-storage arrays and workstations that need a direct internal connection between those two connector types. The assembly follows the PCIe Gen3 and SAS 4.0 specifications.

Four-channel signal path at sustained rates

Each of the four channels carries 12Gbps SAS or 8GT/s PCIe traffic continuously. The SlimSAS 4i 38Pos cable assembly maintains those speeds under load without stepping down to a lower specification. Shielded construction supports stable throughput during extended transfers.

Compact straight connectors save chassis space

The straight Slim SAS 4i and HD Mini SAS 4i ends fit tight drive bays and dense backplanes where angled plugs would clash. Smaller connector bodies leave room for airflow and cable routing in 1U or 2U enclosures. Builders who need a right-angle exit or a longer reach should select a different cable.

Questions about this item

Does the 50 cm length add measurable latency or signal loss when the cable runs inside a hot server chassis all day?

The 50 cm cable meets SAS 4.0 and PCIe Gen3 specifications at 12 Gbps per channel, so signal integrity is maintained without extra latency or heat from the cable itself.

Which controller and backplane connectors must I already have for this Slim SAS 4i 38-pin to HD Mini SAS 4i 36-pin cable to work?

You need a controller with a Slim SAS SFF-8654 4i 38-pin port and a backplane or enclosure with an HD Mini SAS SFF-8643 4i 36-pin port.

Can I use this cable to link a new Slim SAS 4.0 HBA to an older backplane that only has SFF-8643 36-pin ports?

Yes, the cable bridges a Slim SAS SFF-8654 4i 38-pin host to an HD Mini SAS SFF-8643 4i 36-pin target, supporting 12 Gbps SAS and 8 GT/s PCIe per channel.
