SMUGDESK 2 Pack Mini SAS HD Cable SFF-8087 Male to Male 0.5m

SKU CH-2G9Q-TZ1A8

A two-pack of 0.5m SFF-8087 Mini SAS HD cables with locking latches for RAID controllers and backplanes

  • Double-ended SFF-8087 connectors link RAID controllers to storage backplanes
  • 5 m compact length keeps internal wiring tidy and aids chassis airflow
  • Full multi-layer shielding cuts electromagnetic interference for stable 24/7 heavy-load operation
  • Locking latch on each connector prevents accidental disconnection from server vibration
  • Two-cable pack supports multi-server deployment, spare backup and redundant storage needs

Server storage connectivity

This two-pack of Mini SAS HD cables links RAID controllers and HBA cards to multi-disk backplanes inside rack servers, NAS appliances and industrial workstations. Each 0.5-metre assembly terminates in SFF-8087 male plugs on both ends, supporting high-bandwidth SAS traffic for enterprise storage arrays. The short length suits dense chassis where long runs would obstruct airflow. Condition is new.

Shielded construction and locking latches

Multi-layer shielding and high-purity copper conductors suppress electromagnetic interference, crosstalk and signal attenuation during continuous heavy-load operation. Secure locking buckles on every connector prevent accidental disconnection caused by fan vibration or equipment transport. Plug-and-play operation requires no driver installation across mainstream server platforms.

Dual-cable capacity for redundant arrays

Two identical 1.64-foot cables enable simultaneous primary and backup paths or dual-controller configurations in a single purchase. The 0.5-metre reach covers typical controller-to-backplane distances in 1U and 2U enclosures; longer runs between widely separated devices will require a different length. Each cable handles one four-lane SAS link.

Questions about this item

Will the locking latch on the SFF-8087 connectors wear out and need replacement?

Each SFF-8087 connector uses a secure locking buckle designed to resist vibration from server fans, keeping the cable firmly seated during transport and continuous operation.

What limits sustained high-load data transfer on this 0.5 m cable?

Full multi-layer shielding and high-purity copper conductors suppress signal attenuation and crosstalk, enabling stable 24/7 heavy-load operation without drive recognition errors or packet loss.

Does the cable add noticeable heat or power draw inside a server running all day?

The compact 0.5 m length reduces internal wire clutter, improving chassis airflow and heat dissipation while the passive copper assembly draws no extra power.
