SATA III 90°–180° latch cable

This 18-inch SATA III data cable links a drive to a motherboard or host controller using a 90-degree latching connector on one end and a straight 180-degree latching connector on the other. It supports the SATA 6 Gbps specification and remains backwards compatible with SATA I and II ports. The cable is suited for builders adding storage in tight chassis spaces or technicians who keep a spare for quick troubleshooting.

Shielded 26 AWG copper with UL listing

The cable uses 26 AWG tinned copper conductors wrapped in shielding to maintain signal integrity up to 6.0 Gbps. It carries a UL listing and meets RoHS compliance, indicating it meets recognised safety and substance restrictions. In normal use the thin, flexible jacket routes easily without adding noticeable heat or electrical noise to the system.

Latching connectors for secure fit

Both ends feature a 7-pin SATA "L" type key with a latch that clicks into place, reducing the chance of accidental disconnection when cables are pressed against drive cages or other components. The mixed-angle design lets the 90-degree end sit flat against a drive in a cramped bay while the straight end reaches a motherboard port cleanly. Silver colour coding helps identify the cable in a crowded build.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 90° connector so the latch actually locks?

Align the 90° plug with the port, push straight in until the latch clicks, then route the cable toward the 180° end without bending sharper than the moulded angle.

Will the 26AWG tinned copper conductors need replacement over time?

The conductors are solid copper with tin plating; they do not wear out under normal use, so no scheduled replacement is required.

What limits sustained throughput on this 18″ cable?

The 6.0 Gbps SATA III ceiling is the first limit; actual speed cannot exceed the slowest attached device or controller.
