External Mini SAS to SATA Cable

This 3.3ft cable connects an external Mini SAS 26-pin SFF-8088 controller to four SATA 7-pin drives. It is built for storage centres and servers that need a direct link between a host adapter and multiple drive bays. The latch-equipped plug secures the connection in rack environments.

24Gbps Aggregate Throughput Limit

The SFF-8088 interface runs at 6.0Gbps per lane for a total of 24Gbps across the four channels. Each attached SATA device is therefore capped at the single-lane rate, so the cable cannot exceed the native speed of a standard SATA 6Gbps link. Bandwidth does not scale beyond the four-lane aggregate.

Four-Drive Capacity with One-Metre Reach

The assembly serves up to four drives from a single controller port while keeping cable runs to one metre. That length suits typical chassis depths but falls short for full-rack routing or widely spaced backplanes. Builds needing more than four targets or longer runs must use additional cables or a different topology.

Questions about this item

How many SATA drives can this single cable support?

The cable splits one SFF-8088 port into four SATA 7-pin female connectors, letting you attach up to four drives.

What speed does each SATA drive actually see on this cable?

Each lane runs at 6.0 Gbps, so every connected SATA device gets the full 6 Gbps link.

Does the SFF-8088 connector limit total bandwidth in practice?

The 26-pin SFF-8088 interface provides four lanes at 6 Gbps each, capping aggregate throughput at 24 Gbps.
