External SAS breakout cable

This Vszerda Mini-SAS SFF-8088 to 4×SFF-8482 breakout cable connects a single external 26-pin port to four 29-pin SAS drives. Each 3.3 ft assembly includes four IDE power leads so the drives receive power without a separate backplane. The pack contains two identical cables for dual-port controllers or redundant paths.

Upgrade from single-drive cables

Replaces individual SFF-8088-to-SFF-8482 cords when you need to attach four drives to one HBA or RAID controller port. The jump is worthwhile when your enclosure or JBOD presents a single 26-pin uplink but houses multiple 29-pin bays, cutting cable count and improving airflow.

Check controller port and drive power

Verify that your host adapter or expander exposes an SFF-8088 26-pin connector rated for 6.0 Gbps SAS. Confirm the target drives use SFF-8482 29-pin connectors and accept standard IDE 4-pin power. Ensure 3.3 ft reaches between the controller bulkhead and the drive backplane without strain.

Questions about this item

Will the SFF-8088 26-pin end and four SFF-8482 29-pin ends fit my server backplane and drive bays?

The cable has one SFF-8088 26-pin male connector and four SFF-8482 29-pin male connectors, so it connects a single external port to four internal drive slots.

How do I route the 3.3 ft cable and attach the extra power connectors without straining the ports?

Run the 3.3 ft Mini SAS cable from the HBA or RAID controller to the backplane, then plug each of the four IDE power leads into a drive power socket before seating the data connectors.

When should I replace the cable or its power leads in a 6.0 Gbps SAS array?

Replace the assembly if you see intermittent link errors, visible jacket damage, bent pins on the 52 total connectors, or if the power leads no longer latch securely.
