Host-to-Drive Breakout Cable

This 0.5 m cable bridges a Mini SAS SFF-8087 host port on a RAID controller or HBA to four SATA drives. It targets server builders and storage administrators who need direct backplane connectivity inside a chassis. The forward breakout design carries signals from the controller to the drives without a reverse path.

Sustained 6 Gbps Throughput

Rated at 6 Gbps per lane, the assembly maintains SATA III bandwidth across all four channels during continuous RAID rebuilds or backup streams. Triple-layer braided shielding and 100 Ohm impedance control suppress crosstalk in dense drive bays. Gold-plated contacts resist oxidation through repeated hot-swap cycles.

Enterprise-Grade Construction

30 AWG oxygen-free copper cores and an 8-pair wire layout deliver mechanical durability for rack installations. The 36-pin SFF-8087 male connector latches securely to the controller while four SATA females plug directly into drive backplanes. Crossover wiring matches standard server pin-outs and RoHS compliance meets data-centre procurement rules.

Questions about this item

Does the 0.5 m cable generate noticeable heat or draw extra power when drives run continuously?

The cable is passive copper with 30 AWG conductors and 100 Ohm impedance, so it adds no active heat or power draw during all-day operation.

What host-side connector must my controller or HBA provide for this breakout to plug in?

The host end requires a Mini SAS SFF-8087 36-pin male port, commonly found on RAID controllers and HBAs such as LSI or Dell PERC cards.

Will the 3.0 Gbps-rated cable limit my older 3 Gbps SATA drives in a mixed array?

The assembly supports up to 6 Gbps SATA III, so legacy 3 Gbps drives simply run at their native speed without bottleneck.
