Slim SAS SFF8654 8i plug splitting to two SFF8087 Mini SAS connectors on a one metre black cable

Fervit

Fervit SFF8654 8i to Dual SFF8087 12Gbps SAS Cable 1M

SKU CH-M7VA-32S5M

High-density breakout cable converts a single SFF8654 8-lane Slim SAS host port into two independent 4-lane SFF8087 Mini SAS ports with 10 Ohm impedance matching

  • Converts one SFF8654 8i port to two SFF8087 ports
  • 12Gbps SAS 3.0 transfer for enterprise RAID and backplanes
  • 10 Ohm impedance matching preserves signal integrity over distance
  • 32AWG low-loss copper wire reduces attenuation and crosstalk
  • 1 metre length allows flexible routing in dense server racks

SFF8654 8i breakout cable

This 1 metre Fervit cable converts a single SFF8654 8 lane Slim SAS host port into two independent 4 lane SFF8087 Mini SAS ports. It is built with 32AWG low loss copper wire and 10 Ohm precise impedance matching for stable signal integrity. The assembly supports 12Gbps SAS 3.0 high speed data transfer inside enterprise servers and storage enclosures.

Suited for RAID controller expansion

System builders adding drive bays to a RAID controller or backplane with an SFF8654 8i connector will use this breakout to reach two SFF8087 targets. The fixed 1 metre length and internal routing design make it unsuitable for external chassis connections or direct drive attachment without a backplane.

Connector compatibility decides fit

The cable only functions when the host side presents an SFF8654 8i port and each target device accepts an SFF8087 4 lane Mini SAS plug. Verify both connector types on your controller and backplane before purchase.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 1M length or a different length for my server chassis?

The 1M length is the only option supplied; it provides enough reach for flexible routing inside large rackmount servers and high-density storage enclosures without excess slack.

What does the 12Gbps SAS 3.0 rating mean for actual drive throughput?

It means each of the two 4-lane SFF8087 ports can transfer data at up to 12Gbps per lane when connected to a compatible RAID controller and SAS 3.0 backplane.

How does the SFF8654 8i to dual SFF8087 breakout affect cable management?

The single SFF8654 8-lane host connector splits into two independent 4-lane SFF8087 Mini SAS connectors, reducing the number of cables needed between the controller and backplane.
