Internal SAS fan-out cable
The EN-Labs SFF8484TO4SATA50BK is a .5 metre internal cable that splits one 32 pin SFF-8484 host connector into four 7 pin SATA device connectors. It is built for administrators who need to attach multiple SATA drives to a single SAS controller port in servers or workstations. Red PVC jacket and copper conductors provide clear identification and reliable signal integrity.
Sustained 6 Gbps throughput
Each of the four SATA lanes supports up to 6 Gbps, so the cable maintains full bandwidth across all connected drives during continuous read or write workloads. The SFF-8448 sideband signals are preserved, allowing the controller to manage drive status and LED activity without interruption. Shielded construction reduces crosstalk when the cable runs alongside other high-speed interconnects.
Thermals and power
Passive copper conductors draw no extra power and add negligible heat inside the chassis. The flexible red jacket routes cleanly in tight enclosures without blocking airflow to adjacent components. No active cooling or additional power connectors are required for normal operation.

Questions about this item
Does the 50 cm red cable generate noticeable heat or draw extra power when running all day?
The passive copper assembly carries up to 6 Gbps without active components, so it adds no measurable heat or power draw beyond the drives and controller themselves.
What must the system already provide for this SFF-8484 to 4 SATA cable to function?
A host controller or back-plane with a 32-pin SFF-8484 multilane port and four SATA 7-pin drive bays or back-plane connectors.
Will the 6 Gbps link work reliably with older 3 Gbps SATA drives I want to keep?
Yes — the cable supports the 6 Gbps standard and is backward-compatible, so 3 Gbps drives will negotiate their native speed without issues.
