  • Compatible with SAS 2.1 6 Gb/s devices

  • 75 cm length fits compact internal layouts

ORVIX SFF-8643 internal cable

This ORVIX cable connects two SFF-8643 MiniSAS HD ports inside a chassis. It carries SAS 2.1 at 6Gb/s and SAS 3.0 at 12Gb/s signals. The assembly is 75cm long and designed for high-density internal routing.

Suits direct MiniSAS HD links

Builders linking a RAID controller or HBA to a backplane with matching SFF-8643 ports will use this cable. It is not for connections that require a different pinout or an external bulkhead interface.

SAS 3.0 12Gb/s support

The cable meets the SAS 3.0 specification for 12Gb/s throughput. This rating determines whether the link can run at the higher speed tier your controller and drives negotiate.

Questions about this item

Does the package contain only the MiniSAS HD SFF-8643 cable or are additional brackets or screws included?

The package contains the MiniSAS HD SFF-8643 to SFF-8643 internal cable assembly. No brackets, screws or additional accessories are included.

Should I choose the SAS 2.1 6Gb/s or SAS 3.0 12Gb/s version for a 12Gb/s backplane?

Select the SAS 3.0 12Gb/s specification to match a 12Gb/s backplane; the SAS 2.1 6Gb/s version will limit the link to 6Gb/s.

What does the 12Gb/s headline figure mean once the 75cm cable is installed in a server?

It means each lane can transfer up to 12Gb/s when both the controller and the backplane support SAS 3.0, giving full 12Gb/s performance over the 75cm length.
