SMUGDESK SFF-8654 4I to 4 SAS breakout cable

SKU CH-MHC9-AW6MC

Splits a single SFF-8654 4I connector into four SAS ports for connecting multiple drives to a RAID controller

  • SFF-8654 4I splits into four SAS ports
  • Shielded construction reduces crosstalk and data loss
  • Precise connectors prevent disconnection during operation
  • Flexible layout simplifies internal server cable routing
  • Compatible with RAID controllers and SAS storage drives

Internal SAS breakout

This SFF-8654 4I to 4 SAS breakout cable connects a single SFF-8654 4I interface to four independent SAS ports. It is built for administrators linking multiple SAS storage drives to RAID controller cards inside server chassis. The design targets data-centre, enterprise storage and NAS expansion projects.

Shielded wiring and flexible routing

Premium shielding materials lower electromagnetic interference and signal crosstalk within the chassis. Precise pin alignment and stable connectors prevent unexpected disconnection during long-term operation. A compact, flexible structure simplifies internal cable routing in servers and storage enclosures.

Single-input bandwidth limit

The four SAS channels share the bandwidth of one SFF-8654 4I link, so aggregate throughput cannot exceed that upstream connection. Systems requiring dedicated bandwidth per drive will need additional controller ports. The cable carries SAS signals only and does not convert to other protocols.
