Short black cable with Power eSATA plug and SATA 22-pin connector

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK 0.5m Power eSATA to SATA 22Pin Cable

SKU CH-88QR-5HPDG

Connects a Power eSATA port directly to 2.5" and 3.5" SATA drives, delivering 12V and 5V power through a single .5m 22pin cable

  • Compact .5 m length keeps desktop wiring tidy
  • Power eSATA port supplies 12 V and 5 V for 2.5" and 3.5" drives
  • Single cable carries data and power with no extra adapter
  • 22-pin SATA connector plugs straight into standard hard disks
  • Enables fast external storage for backup and expansion

Power eSATA Cable with Integrated Power

This .5m cable combines a Power eSATA host connector with a standard SATA 22pin drive plug. It carries both 12V and 5V power alongside data signals, removing the need for a separate power adapter when the host port supports full Power eSATA output. The short length keeps desktop wiring tidy.

Compatibility and Limitations

Suits builders connecting 2.5 or 3.5 inch SATA drives to a host with a genuine Power eSATA port that supplies both voltages. Not for systems that only offer ordinary eSATA without power delivery, as 3.5 inch drives will not spin up. Buyers needing longer reach or a different host interface should look at other cable types.

Build Integration

Plugs directly into the host Power eSATA port and the drive SATA 22pin socket, so no extra power brick or splitter is required. Frees up a mains outlet and reduces cable clutter inside small-form-factor cases or on the desktop. Ensure the host port specification lists 12V and 5V output before relying on bus power alone.

Questions about this item

Which port must my computer already have to power a 3.5" drive with this .5m cable?

Your host needs a full Power eSATA port that supplies both 12V and 5V; a standard eSATA port without power will not run a 3.5" drive.

Will this .5m cable work if I plug it into a regular eSATA port on an older laptop?

A regular eSATA port cannot deliver the 12V rail, so 3.5" drives will not spin up; 2.5" drives may work if the port provides 5V.

How can I verify the .5m cable is delivering both voltages after I connect a drive?

The drive should spin up immediately and appear in the OS without any extra power adapter; if it stays silent or is not detected, the port lacks 12V or 5V output.
