External SFF-8088 to four SATA breakout

The Vszerda cable carries an external Mini SAS 26-pin SFF-8088 male plug with a release ring on one side and four 7-pin SATA female connectors on the other. It links a host controller or RAID card directly to four SATA target drives or a backplane. The 2.0 metre length gives flexibility for routing between enclosures or across a rack. Copper conductors support the 3.0 gigabit per second signalling rate specified for this interface.

Build integration and cleared space

The single 26-pin plug replaces four separate cables from the controller, reducing clutter at the host side and freeing internal routing space. Each SATA connector attaches to a drive or backplane port without an additional adapter. The 30 AWG wire keeps the bundle manageable for tight cable-management channels. No power leads are included, so drive power must be supplied separately from the chassis or a dedicated power distribution board.

Sustained throughput behaviour

The SAS physical layer is backwards compatible with SATA, so the link negotiates at the drive's native speed up to the 3.0 gigabit per second ceiling. Under continuous read or write workloads the copper conductors maintain signal integrity across the full 2.0 metre run. The external SFF-8088 latch secures the host connection against vibration in rackmount environments. Builders needing more than four drives per controller or a higher signalling rate will require a different cable assembly.

Questions about this item

What throughput limit will I hit first when four SATA drives push sustained transfers through this 3.0 Gbps Mini SAS link?

The cable is rated for 3.0 Gbps per lane, so the Mini SAS 8088 interface itself becomes the bottleneck before the 30 AWG copper conductors saturate.

Does the 2.0 m length add noticeable heat or fan noise when the cable runs continuously in a rack?

The 30 AWG copper cable carries only signal current, so it produces no measurable heat and adds zero acoustic noise regardless of run time.

Which host-side connector must my controller already have for this SFF-8088 plug to seat correctly?

Your controller or HBA needs an external 26-pin SFF-8088 Mini SAS port with the release-ring latch.
