Connection layout

This 0.5 metre breakout cable carries a single SFF-8087 male plug on the host side and splits to four SATA 7-pin female connectors for drives. It links a SAS controller or motherboard port directly to up to four SATA hard drives or SSDs, making it a practical choice for storage expansion in servers or workstations.

Sustained throughput

Each of the four SATA lanes is rated for 6 Gb/s, so the aggregate bandwidth available to the array scales with the number of active drives. The 30 AWG conductors and braided sheath keep signal integrity stable during long copy jobs or RAID rebuilds, while the locking latches on both ends prevent accidental disconnects under vibration.

Upgrade path

The cable replaces a direct backplane link when the controller presents an SFF-8087 port instead of native SATA headers, letting builders attach standard SATA drives without a backplane swap. It is not suited for configurations that require the SFF-8087 connector on the drive side or for SAS drives that need a native SAS target interface.

Questions about this item

Does the 0.5 m SFF-8087 breakout cable generate noticeable heat or draw extra power during continuous operation?

The cable is a passive copper assembly with no active electronics, so it adds no measurable heat or power draw when running all day.

What controller or motherboard port must I already have to use the SFF-8087 male connector?

You need a SAS HBA, RAID controller or motherboard with an internal SFF-8087 36-pin male port; the cable connects that host to four SATA drives.

Will the 6 Gbit/s SATA connectors work with older 3 Gbit/s hard drives I want to keep?

Yes, the SATA 7-pin targets are backward-compatible, so 3 Gbit/s drives will operate at their native speed on this breakout cable.
