Slimline SAS cable with SFF-8654 38-pin connectors, 40cm length

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK SFF-8654 4i 38Pin PCIe 4.0 Slimline SAS Cable 40cm

SKU CH-R1H1-98FXZ

A 40 cm Slimline SAS cable with SFF-8654 4i 38-pin connectors on both ends, compliant with PCIe 4.0 for internal server storage links

  • PCIe 4.0 bandwidth for fast storage links
  • 40 cm length fits tight server chassis
  • Multi-layer shielding cuts crosstalk at speed
  • Reinforced strain relief stops wire fatigue
  • SFF-8654 38-pin plugs connect RAID to NVMe backplanes

Slimline SAS SFF-8654 4i Internal Cable

This 40cm cable carries a SFF-8654 4i 38Pin connection at PCIe 4.0 speeds between a host adapter and a target backplane. It is built for server chassis and storage enclosures where space is limited and signal integrity matters.

RAID HBA and NVMe backplane installers

Installers connecting a RAID controller or HBA to a U.2 or NVMe drive cage with matching SFF-8654 ports will find the length and shielding suitable. Builders whose equipment uses a different connector style or who need a longer reach for full-rack cabling should look at another assembly.

PCIe 4.0 rated SFF-8654 38Pin interface

The single specification that decides fit is the SFF-8654 4i 38Pin interface operating at PCIe 4.0; both ends of the link must present this exact connector and protocol for the cable to function.

Questions about this item

Will the SFF-8654 38Pin connectors need replacement after repeated chassis maintenance?

Each connector has reinforced strain relief to resist bending and vibration, reducing intermittent contact during long-term operation.

What limits sustained PCIe 4.0 throughput on this 40cm cable?

Multi-layer shielding and high-quality conductors suppress interference and attenuation to maintain signal integrity at full bandwidth.

Does the Slimline SAS cable add noticeable heat or power draw during all-day server use?

The passive cable draws no power and generates no heat; shielding only preserves signal quality without thermal impact.
