Enfain Mini SAS HD SF-8644 to SFF-8088 cable 3m

SKU CH-37TX-NB67W

A 3 m external cable linking Mini-SAS HD SFF-8644 to SFF-8088 for 6–12 Gb/s SAS 2.1/3.0 server storage connections

Length 3m

  • Supports 12 Gb/s bandwidth meeting SAS 3.0 signal specs
  • External SFF-8644 connector compliant with SAF-8644 industry standard
  • Connects to SFF-8088 for server external storage links
  • 11 mm port density enables tighter board layouts than 19.01 mm legacy
  • Compatible with SAS 2.1 and proposed SAS 3.0 specifications

Connector Types

This cable links an SFF-8644 port to an SFF-8088 port for external server storage connections. It suits administrators attaching JBOD enclosures or external RAID arrays to host bus adapters with Mini-SAS HD interfaces. The three-metre length provides reach across standard rack layouts. Buyers needing internal SFF-8643 connections should choose a different assembly.

Compatibility Check

Verify that your host adapter or RAID controller presents an external SFF-8644 receptacle before ordering. Confirm the target enclosure uses the legacy SFF-8088 connector rather than a newer Mini-SAS HD port. Ensure the controller firmware supports the desired SAS 2.1 or 3.0 signalling rate for the attached drives. Cable routing space and rack depth should also be measured.

Signal Integrity

The design meets SAS 2.1 and proposed SAS 3.0 electrical specifications for 6 Gb/s to 12 Gb/s operation. Port-to-port spacing of 11 mm improves density compared with the older 19.01 mm pitch. Shielded construction reduces crosstalk in dense cable bundles. No active cooling or external power is required for normal operation.
