One-metre Mini SAS SFF-8087 to SFF-8639 cable with SATA 15-pin power connector

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK 12Gbps Mini SAS SFF-8087 to SFF-8639 Cable SATA 15Pin Power

SKU CH-8RH8-XM4TM

Connects SFF-8087 controllers to U.2 NVMe SSDs with integrated SATA 15-pin power at 12Gbps over one metre

  • 12Gbps transfer rate for fast data handling
  • SFF-8087 to SFF-8639 with SATA 15Pin power in one cable
  • 1 meter length allows flexible server routing
  • Works with U.2 NVMe SSD and RAID controller setups
  • Durable build suited for long-term server use

12Gbps SAS U.2 Connection Cable

This cable links a Mini SAS SFF-8087 port on a RAID controller to a U.2 NVMe SSD using an SFF-8639 connector. It integrates a SATA 15-pin power feed so the drive receives both data and power from a single assembly. The one-metre length suits standard server chassis routing.

12Gbps Interface Practical Limits

The SAS interface is rated for 12Gbps, yet actual throughput depends on the controller, drive firmware and backplane quality. Cable length and signal integrity can reduce sustained rates below the nominal figure. The SATA power connector supplies only the voltages defined by the SATA specification.

Capacity and Headroom for U.2 SSDs

The assembly supports one U.2 NVMe SSD per cable, delivering enough bandwidth for current enterprise drives. It cannot serve multiple drives or dual-port configurations without additional cables. Builders needing more than one device must add separate connections for each.

Questions about this item

What cable version should I pick for a 12Gbps RAID controller and U.2 NVMe SSD?

Choose the 12Gbps Mini SAS SFF-8087 to SFF-8639 cable with SATA 15Pin power; it matches both the controller and the SSD interface in one assembly.

What does the 12Gbps rating mean when the cable is installed in a server?

It allows up to 12Gbps data throughput between the RAID controller and the U.2 NVMe SSD, provided both ends also support 12Gbps SAS signalling.

Which interface standard does the SFF-8087 end use and what speed does it cap at?

The SFF-8087 connector follows the SAS standard and caps at 12Gbps when linked to a compatible 12Gbps RAID controller.
