Internal SAS cable for host-to-backplane links

This 3.3ft cable connects a standard Mini SAS 36pin SFF-8087 host adapter to a High Density SFF-8643 backplane. It carries SAS 2.1 at 6Gb/s and SAS 3.0 at 12Gb/s over copper conductors. The male-to-female layout fits typical internal RAID or HBA installations.

Fits tight controller and backplane layouts

The SFF-8643 connector uses less PCB real estate than the legacy 36pin design, freeing space on dense host cards and backplanes. No external power or active circuitry is required. The 3.3ft length suits standard chassis routing without excess slack.

Replaces legacy SFF-8087-to-SFF-8087 runs

Builders upgrading from 6Gb/s-only backplanes gain 12Gb/s headroom when both ends support SAS 3.0. The hybrid pinout also works with existing 6Gb/s gear, so the jump is worth it when the controller or backplane moves to the HD connector.

Questions about this item

What data rate does the 12 Gb/s cable sustain under continuous load?

The assembly is rated for SAS 3.0 at 12 Gb/s, matching the connector specification for sustained throughput.

Does the SFF-8643 connector generate noticeable heat during all-day operation?

The passive copper conductors and shielded design add no active heat; any warmth comes from the attached controller or backplane.

Which controller port does the SFF-8087 end plug into?

The 36-pin SFF-8087 male connector fits a standard 4i SAS/SATA host adapter or RAID card port.
