Connects internal SAS devices using 36-pin SFF-8643 ports at up to 12 Gb/s over 3.3 ft
- Supports 12Gb/s SAS 3.0 with 36-pin SFF-8643 connectors
- Higher port density via compact SFF-8643 interface design
- 3FT length suits standard internal server chassis
- 30AWG conductors maintain signal integrity at 12Gb/s
- Connects two Mini SAS HD SFF-8643 ports directly
Internal 12 Gb/s SAS link
This Vszerda cable connects two Mini SAS HD SFF-8643 ports inside a server or storage chassis. It carries SAS 2.1 at 6 Gb/s and SAS 3.0 at 12 Gb/s over a 36-pin high-density interface. The 3.3 ft length suits typical backplane-to-controller runs.
Suits dense 12 Gb/s backplanes
Installers upgrading to SAS 3.0 or running mixed 6 Gb/s and 12 Gb/s devices will find the SFF-8643 ends a direct fit. Builders who require a different connector style, an external interface or a longer reach should look elsewhere.
36-pin SFF-8643 on both ends
The single specification that decides fit is the double-ended 36-pin SFF-8643 plug. Verify that both your controller and backplane present this exact port before ordering.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 3.3FT length or is a different cable length offered?
Only the 3.3FT (1.0M) length is listed for this SFF-8643 to SFF-8643 cable.
What does the 12Gb/s rating mean when the cable is installed in a server?
It supports SAS 3.0 at 12Gb/s per lane, giving four lanes of 12Gb/s throughput when both ends use SFF-8643 ports.
Does the SFF-8643 connector limit me to a specific SAS version?
The SFF-8643 interface is compliant with SAS 3.0 and also works with SAS 2.1 at 6Gb/s.
