OCuLink SFF-8611 4i active cable with locking connectors, 50cm

LORDWORLD

LORDWORLD OCuLink SFF-8611 4i to SFF-8611 Active Cable 50cm

SKU CH-7GTV-JGP51

Active cable links two OCuLink SFF-8611 4i ports at up to 8 Gbps over 50 cm

  • Connect backplane to controller directly
  • Male-to-male SFF-8611 ends fit matching ports
  • Active latch locks securely under vibration
  • 8 Gbps throughput moves large datasets fast
  • 50 cm length keeps internal routing tidy

Direct-attach OCuLink cable for internal SSD

This 50 cm active cable carries an OCuLink SFF-8611 4i male connector at each end, letting you link a backplane or drive cage straight to a matching controller port. It targets builders who need a tidy internal run between two OCuLink-equipped devices without adapter clutter. The active-latch locks keep both ends seated under vibration.

Data-rate ceiling of 8 Gbps per lane

The cable’s active circuitry supports up to 8 Gbps signalling, which is the single figure that decides whether the link can saturate your SSD or RAID controller. If your device demands a higher lane speed, this cable will become the bottleneck; if it runs at or below that rate, the connection is transparent.

Comfortable inside standard chassis.

At 50 cm the cable spans typical motherboard-to-backplane distances in 2 U or 4 U servers and workstation cases with room to route around coolers. It runs out of reach for full-tower layouts where the controller sits far from the drive cage, or for external enclosures that need a longer tail.

Questions about this item

What does the 8 Gbps data rate mean for real-world SSD throughput?

The 8 Gbps per lane ceiling limits a four-lane SSD to roughly 4 GB/s of usable bandwidth after protocol overhead.

Which OCuLink revision does the SFF-8611 4i connector implement?

The SFF-8611 4i interface runs at up to 8 Gbps per lane, matching the OCuLink 2 / PCIe 3.0 x4 electrical spec.

Will the 50 cm length and active latch fit inside a standard 2U server chassis?

At 50 cm the cable reaches most backplane-to-controller routes in a 2U box, and the active latch secures the SFF-8611 plugs without extra brackets.
