Vszerda Mini SAS-012 breakout cable

This Vszerda Mini SAS-012 cable connects an SFF-8643 host port on a controller or motherboard to four SFF-8482 target drives with integrated SATA power adapters. It serves builders expanding internal storage using SAS or SATA hard drives and SSDs. The 3.3 ft length suits typical chassis routing.

Sustained 6 Gbps per drive over copper

Each of the four lanes delivers up to 6 gigabytes_per_second data transfer using 30 AWG copper conductors. The thin, braided cable construction maintains signal integrity during continuous read or write workloads across all connected drives. SATA power must be attached to every SFF-8482 adapter for operation.

SFF-8643 male host to four SFF-8482 targets

The cable functions only in a forward breakout direction: the SFF-8643 male connector attaches to the controller side, while the four labelled SFF-8482 connectors attach to drives or a backplane. It does not work when the SFF-8643 end is connected to a backplane or target device.

Questions about this item

Does the 3.3 ft cable run hot or draw extra power during continuous operation?

The copper conductors carry data only; all drive power comes from the separate SATA 15-pin adapters, so the cable itself adds no measurable heat or power draw.

What must already be in the system for the SFF-8643 end to connect and the four SFF-8482 ends to power drives?

You need a controller or motherboard with an internal Mini SAS HD SFF-8643 port, plus a SATA power cable from the PSU for each of the four drive adapters.

Will this breakout work with an older SFF-8087 HBA and 6 Gbps SAS or SATA drives?

The host connector is SFF-8643 male, not SFF-8087, so it plugs directly into a 12 Gbps controller; each target runs at 6 Gbps and accepts both SAS and SATA drives.
