MCIO 8X 74Pin to Dual 4X 38Pin Cable

This Vszerda MCIO cable splits a single 74-pin connector into two 38-pin connectors for PCI-E 5.0 links. It serves builders who need to connect one host port to two storage or accelerator devices in servers or workstations. The 0.5 metre length keeps signal paths short inside dense chassis. It is not for users who need a single 1-to-1 extension or a different pin count.

Installation and Common Issues

The male-to-female terminals plug straight into matching MCIO sockets without tools or drivers. Route the copper cable away from sharp chassis edges to preserve the shock-resistant construction. Mis-aligning the keyed SFF-TA-1016 connectors is the typical error; forcing them can bend pins. The half-metre reach limits placement to adjacent bays or boards.

24 Gbps PCI-E 5.0 Signal Rating

The cable is specified for 24 gigabits per second per lane under the PCI-E 5.0 standard, which decides whether it matches your controller and device speed requirements. It also carries SAS 3.0 and 4.0 traffic at the same rate. If your link demands a higher signalling rate or a different protocol, this cable will not meet the spec.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the MCIO 8X 74Pin to 2× MCIO 4X 38Pin cable is working at 24 Gbps after setup?

Connect the cable between your host device and external SSD, then run a disk benchmark tool; sustained reads near 24 Gbps confirm the PCI-E 5.0 link is active.

What comes in the box and what must I buy separately for the Vszerda MCIO 8X 74Pin cable?

The package contains only the 0.5 m male-to-female SFF-TA-1016 copper cable; you must supply the host with an MCIO 74-pin port and the target SSD with dual MCIO 38-pin connectors.

Which version should I choose between the 74-pin and 38-pin MCIO connectors for my PCI-E 5.0 setup?

This cable is a fixed 1-to-2 assembly: the single 74-pin end plugs into your host, while the two 38-pin ends connect to compatible drives — no alternate versions exist.
