SAS SFF-8482 to SATA with Molex Power

This 18-inch red cable combines SATA data and power connections for drives using the SAS SFF-8482 interface. The data segment uses a 7-pin SATA architecture to keep the cable thin and flexible. A 15-pin SATA to 4-pin LP4 adapter is included to supply power to the drive. It is compliant with SATA III 6Gb specifications.

Suits SAS drives needing SATA host connection

This cable suits builders connecting a SAS drive with an SFF-8482 port to a SATA controller or motherboard header while drawing power from a Molex LP4 source. It is not for drives that use a standard SATA data connector, nor for installations requiring a different SAS plug type or a pure SATA power input without the Molex adapter.

SFF-8482 interface requirement

The single specification that decides fit is the drive connector: the drive must present an SFF-8482 SAS port. If the drive uses a different SAS connector or a native SATA port, this cable will not mate. The 18-inch length and red colour are fixed attributes of this assembly.

Questions about this item

Which length of this SAS SFF-8482 to SATA cable should I pick?

The cable is supplied in a single 18-inch length that combines a SATA 7+15 pin connector, a 4-pin Molex LP4 power tail and a 7-pin SATA data plug.

What does the SATA III 6Gb label mean once the cable is installed?

It confirms the data path meets the SATA III specification so a connected drive can run at up to 6 Gb/s, limited by the drive and controller.

How does the SFF-8482 interface affect what drives I can connect?

The SFF-8482 end accepts SAS or SATA drives while the opposite end provides a standard SATA 7-pin data connection plus Molex LP4 power.
