Blue 1m internal Mini SAS HD cable with SFF-8087 connectors at both ends

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK 1m SFF-8087 to SFF-8087 Mini SAS HD Cable

SKU CH-3FP2-NX3YN

A 1 metre shielded Mini SAS HD cable with SFF-8087 connectors links RAID cards or PCIe storage controllers to drive backplanes for reliable 24/7 server and NAS storage arrays

  • 1 metre length enables flexible internal routing
  • SFF-8087 connectors link RAID cards to backplanes
  • Multi-layer shielding reduces crosstalk for stable signals
  • Reinforced strain relief resists vibration in 24/7 use
  • Supports SAS and SATA drive arrays without adapters

Internal storage cable for server and NAS builds

This 1 metre SFF-8087 to SFF-8087 Mini SAS HD cable links RAID controllers and PCIe storage adapters to internal drive backplanes in servers, workstations and NAS units. Multi-layer shielding reduces crosstalk and keeps high-speed signals stable under continuous load. Reinforced strain relief on each connector resists vibration and repeated bending for reliable 24/7 operation.

Suits builders adding drive arrays inside a chassis

Technicians expanding SATA or SAS disk arrays, assembling data-recovery workstations or upgrading storage servers will find the compact connectors helpful for cable routing and airflow. Buyers who need external connections, longer runs or a different connector keying should look at other cable types. The plug-and-play design requires no extra adapters for standard internal Mini SAS HD ports.

Connector specification is SFF-8087 Mini SAS HD

Both ends use the SFF-8087 interface, so the cable only fits equipment with matching Mini SAS HD ports. Verify that your RAID card, controller or backplane uses this exact connector before ordering.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the 1m Mini SAS HD cable is transmitting data correctly after connecting it to my RAID controller?

Check the RAID controller BIOS or management software to confirm all attached drives are detected at full SAS or SATA link speed without errors.

What comes with the SFF-8087 cable and do I need any extra adapters for a standard server backplane?

The package contains only the 1 meter SFF-8087 to SFF-8087 cable; no additional adapters are required for direct connection to compatible RAID cards and backplanes.

Which length should I choose for a typical 2U server chassis when linking a PCIe storage controller to the drive cage?

The 1 meter (3.28ft) length provides enough slack for routing around components while keeping cable management tidy in most 2U and larger enclosures.
