External Mini SAS Cable

The Vszerda CAB-8088/8088-1.5M is a 1.5-meter SFF-8088 to SFF-8088 cable built for 6Gbps SAS 2.0 links. It connects external RAID controllers, DAS enclosures or server backplanes in data-centre racks. The 26-pin male-to-male assembly uses AWG26 twinaxial pairs at 100-ohm impedance. It suits administrators who need a direct, standards-compliant Mini SAS HD link between compatible hardware.

Build Integration

The cable plugs straight into any SFF-8088 port without adapters, freeing internal PCIe slots by moving storage traffic outside the chassis. Its 4.9-foot reach spans adjacent rack units or short rack-to-rack runs. Backward compatibility with 3Gbps SAS lets it serve mixed-generation gear while the robust connector latch secures the link against vibration. It carries both SAS and SATA protocols for flexible device support.

Sustained Operation

AWG26 twinaxial construction with eight differential pairs maintains signal integrity across the full length during continuous high-throughput workloads. The 100-ohm controlled impedance minimises skew and crosstalk when arrays stream sequential data for hours. Connectors meet SFF-8088 mechanical specs so repeated mating cycles in dense server environments do not degrade contact force. The assembly is rated for the thermal and airflow conditions found in standard rack cabinets.

Questions about this item

What is the maximum sustained data rate of this SFF-8088 SAS cable?

The cable supports the SAS 2.0 protocol at 6 Gbps and is backward compatible with 3 Gbps SAS links.

Does the 1.5-metre SFF-8088 assembly generate noticeable heat or require active cooling during continuous operation?

As a passive twinaxial cable with 100-ohm impedance, it produces no measurable heat and needs no cooling.

Which host-side connector must my controller or server already provide to use this cable?

You need an external Mini SAS SFF-8088 port on the host controller or RAID adapter.
