SlimSAS SFF-8654 8i cable for high-density servers

This Vszerda internal cable connects two SFF-8654 8i ports using a straight 11# plug design. It supports data rates up to 24Gbps with 100 Ohm impedance over a .5 metre length. The 32AWG ribbon construction uses 74 pins to maintain signal integrity in dense chassis. It complies with the SAS-4 standard extended to SAS 4.0 for modern storage workloads.

Straight plug installs in tight bays

The straight 11# connector orientation keeps the cable close to the backplane, reducing bend radius issues in 1U or 2U servers. Ribbon layout simplifies routing between adjacent drive cages or NVMe backplanes. Ensure both endpoints use SFF-8654 8i receptacles; mismatched pin counts or angled ports will prevent seating. No tools are required beyond finger-tightening the latch.

Suits integrators building SAS 4.0

Builders needing longer runs or right-angle plugs should select a different length or connector style. The .5 metre reach limits use to intra-chassis links only. Systems requiring shielded external cabling or different pin configurations are not compatible.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the 24Gbps link is active after connecting the SFF-8654 8i cable?

Check the host controller or RAID utility for a negotiated 24Gbps link speed on each of the eight lanes and confirm zero CRC errors during sustained I/O.

What comes in the box and do I need any extra brackets or adapters for a straight 11# plug?

The package contains the single .5 m SlimSAS SFF-8654 to SFF-8654 8i cable; no brackets or adapters are included and none are required for the straight 11# plug.

Which cable version should I choose for a 100 Ohm, 32AWG, 74-pin internal SAS 4.0 connection?

Select the 11# straight variant — it matches the 100 Ohm impedance, 32AWG ribbon construction and 74-pin high-density plug specified for SAS 4.0 internal I/O.
