What this cable does

The Vszerda Mini SAS 36P SFF-8087 to 4x SFF-8482 cable connects up to four SFF-8482 hard drives to a single Mini SAS 36P SFF-8087 port. It is built for RAID configurations, data centres and high-density storage applications where multiple drives must attach to one controller.

The spec that decides fit

The cable carries a 3 gigabits_per_second SAS link and splits one SFF-8087 male connector into four SFF-8482 female connectors. Male-to-female terminal gender and the exact connector pairing determine whether it matches your backplane or HBA.

Capacity and headroom

Four SFF-8482 drives share the single 3 Gbps SAS lane, so aggregate throughput is divided among active disks. The 1.0 m length suits typical server chassis routing, and the included SATA power cord powers the attached drives. Not for builders who need more than four drive connections or a faster interface than 3 Gbps SAS.

Questions about this item

What does the 3 Gb/s speed rating mean once the cable is installed in a server?

Each of the four SFF-8482 drives connects at up to 3 Gb/s, so the cable limits every attached drive to that transfer rate.

What interface standard does the SFF-8087 connector use and what throughput does it cap?

The Mini SAS 36P SFF-8087 plug carries four 3 Gb/s SAS lanes, setting the maximum throughput per drive at 3 Gb/s.

What physical clearance and connectors are needed to fit this 1.0 m cable in a chassis?

You need one male SFF-8087 port on the controller and four female SFF-8482 drive bays with enough space for the 1.0 m cable run.
