Two-metre Mini SAS HD SFF8088 stacking cable with 26-pin connectors on each end

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK 2M Mini SAS HD SFF8088 26Pin to SAS HD 8088 Stacking Cable

SKU CH-Q3KS-701K7

Connects two SFF8088 26pin SAS HD ports for server stacking and JBOD linking with 10ohm impedance and 6Gbps data transfer over 2meter length

  • Server stacking via SFF8088 26pin SAS HD ports
  • 10ohm impedance matching preserves signal integrity
  • 6Gbps transfer rate supports SAS 2.0 systems
  • 28AWG copper wire reduces loss and crosstalk
  • 2meter length allows flexible crossrack routing

Server Stacking Cable

This 2meter Mini SAS HD SFF8088 cable links two 26pin ports for rackmount server aggregation and JBOD enclosure connections. It is built with 28AWG copper conductors and controlled 10ohm impedance to maintain signal integrity across the run. The assembly supports 6Gbps throughput for SAS 2.0 storage infrastructure.

Suitable For Rack Aggregation

System builders linking servers, JBOD shelves or RAID arrays within a single rack or across adjacent cabinets will find the length and connector match convenient. Installations that require active optical transceivers or a different pinout for external HBA connectivity should evaluate alternative cable types.

6Gbps SAS 2.0 Rating

The single specification that determines fit is the 6Gbps data rate aligned with the SAS 2.0 interface standard. Verify that both endpoints operate at this signalling speed before deployment.

Questions about this item

Should I choose this 2‑metre cable or a shorter one for my rack?

The 2‑metre length lets you route between adjacent racks or across a full‑height cabinet; pick a shorter cable only if both ports sit inside the same chassis.

What does 6 Gbps mean for my server stack?

It delivers up to 6 Gbps per lane across the SFF8088 link, matching SAS 2.0 speeds for RAID arrays and JBOD enclosures.

Is the SFF8088 connector limited by the 10 ohm impedance spec?

The 10 ohm impedance is tightly controlled to keep signal integrity at 6 Gbps, so the connector itself does not become the bottleneck.
