Host-to-Target Breakout

This two-pack provides a Mini SAS SFF-8087 male connector that plugs into a SAS HBA or RAID controller and fans out to four SATA 7-pin female ports for hard drives or SSDs. Each cable measures 0.5 m (1.6 ft) and uses 30 AWG conductors with a braided sleeve for tidy routing inside a chassis.

6 Gbit/s Per-Drive Ceiling

The assembly is rated for SAS 3 on the host side and SATA III on the target side, so each attached drive tops out at 6 Gbit/s regardless of the controller’s 12 Gbit/s capability. The forward breakout wiring only works when the SFF-8087 port acts as the host; connecting the Mini SAS end to a backplane will not function.

Replaces Bulkier Fan-Out Looms

It supersedes older, stiffer multi-lane cables that clutter tight server bays, and the labelled, latch-equipped ends speed up drive swaps. The upgrade makes sense when you need four SATA devices from a single 36-pin controller port and value the shorter 0.5 m length for clean cable management.

Questions about this item

Which length should I choose for a compact server build?

The 0.5 m (1.6 ft) version keeps cable runs short and tidy inside tight chassis, while the 3.3 ft option suits larger cases or external drive enclosures.

What does the 6 Gbps rating mean for my SATA drives?

Each of the four SATA 7-pin connectors supports up to 6 Gbps, matching SATA III speeds so SSDs and HDDs run at their native transfer rate.

How does the SFF-8087 interface limit performance?

The 36-pin Mini SAS plug is a SAS 3 host connector rated for 12 Gbps per lane, but the breakout carries four SATA III lanes at 6 Gbps each, so the SATA side sets the practical ceiling.
