SAS breakout cable for four SATA drives

The Silverstone CPS05-RE connects a single SFF-8643 36-pin target port to four SATA 7-pin host connectors. It includes an SGPIO sideband cable so drive activity LEDs and enclosure management signals remain functional. The 600 mm length suits typical server and workstation chassis routing.

Shielded construction with heavy-duty connector

Thick shielding protects the four lanes against electromagnetic interference during sustained 12 Gbps per lane transfers. The robust SFF-8643 plug resists accidental disconnection when cables are dressed behind drive backplanes. Black PVC jacketing keeps the bundle tidy in dense 2 U or 4 U enclosures.

Replaces shorter or unshielded Mini-SAS HD breakouts

Builders upgrading from cables lacking sideband support gain enclosure status monitoring without extra wiring. The jump is worth it when moving to SAS 3.0 backplanes that demand full 12 Gbps lane integrity across all four connected drives.

Questions about this item

Does the SFF-8643 36-pin connector support SAS 3.0 speeds of 12Gbps per lane?

Yes, the cable is built to the SAS 3.0 industry standard and each of the four lanes runs at 12Gbps.

What clearance is needed for the heavy-duty SFF-8643 connector and 600mm cable run?

The thick, shielded Mini-SAS connector requires enough depth for a secure latch, and the 600mm length suits typical chassis routing.

How do I connect the sideband SGPIO cable during installation?

Plug the sideband lead into the SGPIO header on your backplane or controller so drive status LEDs report correctly.
