SMUGDESK Mini SAS SFF-8087 to SFF-8482 Breakout Cable 3.3FT with SATA Power

SKU CH-8T7S-PHRAE

Connects a Mini SAS 8087 RAID controller to 2.5 and 3.5 SAS or SATA drives with integrated SATA power over 3.3FT

  • Connects RAID controller to drives via SFF-8087 and SFF-8482
  • Delivers data and power through integrated SATA connector
  • 3FT length enables flexible routing inside server chassis
  • High-speed signal transmission optimised for enterprise storage arrays
  • Molded locking connectors resist vibration in continuous server operation

RAID controller connection

This internal breakout cable links a Mini SAS SFF-8087 port on a RAID controller to SFF-8482 SAS or SATA hard drives. It is built for system integrators and administrators assembling storage arrays in servers or NAS enclosures. The integrated SATA power connector supplies drive power alongside data, removing the need for separate power wiring. The 3.3FT length suits typical chassis routing.

Sustained enterprise operation

Molded connectors lock firmly to resist vibration-induced disconnection during continuous server duty. The cable jacket withstands abrasion and heat inside closed chassis, preserving signal integrity over long-term deployments. Combined data and power delivery through a single assembly reduces cable count and potential failure points in high-density drive configurations. Compliant construction maintains reliable high-speed transmission for demanding RAID workloads.

SFF-8482 drive interface

The breakout end uses the SFF-8482 connector, which carries both data and power to compatible 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch SAS or SATA drives. This cable cannot attach to drives lacking an SFF-8482 port, such as those with only standard SATA data and power receptacles. Buyers needing to connect pure SATA drives without the unified SFF-8482 interface require a different breakout design.

Questions about this item

Does the SFF-8087 to SFF-8482 cable generate noticeable heat when running all day in a server chassis?

The cable carries only data and power signals; it has no active components that produce heat, so it remains at ambient temperature inside the chassis.

What must I already own to use this Mini SAS breakout cable with 3.5 and 2.5 drives?

You need a RAID controller or HBA with an SFF-8087 port and a free SATA power lead from your power supply for the integrated power connector.

Will this SFF-8087 to SFF-8482 cable work alongside older SAS or SATA drives I keep in the same array?

The SFF-8482 connector mates with both SAS and SATA drives, so legacy 3.5 or 2.5 drives connect directly without adapters.
