One-metre cable linking M.2 M-Key 2260 NVMe to Mini SAS SFF-8087

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK 1m M.2 M-Key 2260 NVMe to Mini SAS SFF-8087 Cable 12Gbps 30AWG

SKU CH-2BGW-6GWEE

Connects an M.2 M-Key 2260 NVMe drive to a Mini SAS SFF-8087 port at 12Gbps using 30AWG wire

  • Connects M.2 2260 NVMe drives directly to Mini SAS SFF-8087 ports
  • 12Gbps transfer speed handles demanding server workloads
  • 30AWG wire keeps signals stable inside tight chassis
  • One-metre length fits standard rack and cabinet routing
  • Plug-and-play design works with RAID controllers and storage arrays

M.2 M-Key 2260 NVMe to Mini SAS SFF-8087 Cable

This 1m cable connects an M.2 M-Key 2260 NVMe device directly to a Mini SAS SFF-8087 interface. It supports 12Gbps transmission speed using 30AWG wire for stable signal integrity. The plug-and-play design simplifies installation inside servers and equipment cabinets. It serves as a dedicated wiring accessory for RAID controllers and storage devices.

Suited for direct NVMe to SAS connections

Builders linking an M.2 M-Key 2260 NVMe drive to a Mini SAS SFF-8087 port will find this cable fits the requirement. It is not for users needing a different M.2 key type or length. Buyers requiring alternative form factors or protocol conversions should look elsewhere. The fixed 1m length suits internal cabinet wiring but not longer runs.

12Gbps transmission speed over 30AWG wire

The cable delivers 12Gbps high-speed data transfer across its 30AWG conductors. This specification determines whether the link meets the bandwidth demands of the target RAID or storage system. Verify that both the NVMe device and the Mini SAS SFF-8087 controller support this signalling rate. The wire gauge and speed rating are the critical compatibility factors.

Questions about this item

Does the cable include the M.2 NVMe drive or the Mini SAS controller?

The cable is a standalone adapter; the M.Key 2260 NVMe device and the Mini SAS SFF-8087 host controller must be purchased separately.

When should I choose the 12Gbps 30AWG version over a slower alternative?

Choose this version when your RAID controller or server backplane supports 12Gbps SAS and you need the 30AWG wire’s flexibility for tight 1m internal routing.

What does the 12Gbps rating mean for an NVMe SSD installed in a server?

The link can transfer up to 12Gbps between the NVMe drive and the SAS RAID controller, so the SSD’s throughput is limited by the slower of the drive or the controller.
