A flat MCIO 8i 74pin cable splits to two SFF8639 connectors with a 15pin power lead, 19.68in long

Fervit

Fervit MCIO 8i 74Pin to Dual SFF8639 24Gbps SAS Cable 19.68in with 15Pin Power

SKU CH-362R-DMYNF

Converts a single MCIO 8i 74pin host port to dual SFF8639 U.2/SAS drive interfaces at 24Gbps SAS 4.0 with integrated 15pin power in a 19.68in shielded cable

  • Converts one MCIO 8i 74pin host port to dual SFF8639 drive bays for storage expansion
  • Delivers 24Gbps SAS 4.0 bandwidth for U.2 NVMe SSDs and enterprise SAS drives
  • Integrated 15pin power cable provides dedicated drive power to simplify server wiring
  • 68in length fits short-run routing inside dense 2U and 4U rackmount chassis
  • Server-grade shielded harness reduces signal loss and crosstalk for reliable RAID operation

MCIO 8i 74Pin to Dual SFF8639 Cable

This Fervit cable converts a single MCIO 8i 74pin Slimline SAS host port into two SFF8639 U.2 or SAS drive connectors. It targets administrators expanding enterprise storage arrays inside rackmount servers. The integrated 15pin power lead delivers dedicated power to both drives. Rated for 24Gbps SAS 4.0 throughput, it supports highbandwidth NVMe and SAS SSDs.

Verify Host Port and Drive Compatibility

Confirm your server backplane or HBA exposes an MCIO 8i 74pin Slimline SAS port before ordering. Ensure the target drives use the SFF8639 U.2 or SAS interface and accept power from the 15pin connector. The 19.68in length suits short runs in dense 2U or 4U chassis; measure your routing path to avoid tension.

Replaces Separate Data and Power Looms

This assembly replaces a discrete data cable plus a separate power harness, reducing cable count and improving airflow in tight bays. The jump is worthwhile when consolidating dual U.2 NVMe or SAS drives onto one host port while maintaining 24Gbps SAS 4.0 speeds. It does not suit builds lacking an MCIO 8i host connector or drives requiring a different power pinout.

Questions about this item

What connectors and cables are included with this Fervit MCIO 8i 74Pin to Dual SFF8639 cable?

The cable provides a single MCIO 8i 74pin Slimline SAS host connector that splits into two SFF8639 U.2/SAS drive connectors, and it includes an integrated 15pin power cable for dedicated drive power.

Which version or capacity of this cable should I choose for 24Gbps SAS 4.0 performance?

This single model supports 24Gbps SAS 4.0 bandwidth and works with both U.2 NVMe SSDs and enterprise-grade SAS drives, so no alternative version is needed for that speed.

What does the 24Gbps SAS 4.0 rating mean when the cable is installed in a server?

It means each of the two SFF8639 ports can transfer data at up to 24Gbps over the SAS 4.0 protocol, provided the host controller and drives also support SAS 4.0, with the 19.68in length and shielded harness minimising signal loss.
