Connectivity Solution

This cable connects a Mini Slimline SAS SFF-8654 4i 38-pin port to a U.2 SAS 8639 storage device while supplying power through an integrated SATA 15-pin male connector. It is designed for server and workstation builders who need to attach U.2 NVMe SSDs to a compatible backplane or controller. The assembly uses 32AWG high-frequency wire and is specified for 24G single-channel data transmission. Its 31.49-inch length suits typical rack and chassis layouts.

Suitable Builds and Limitations

The cable suits administrators upgrading or populating U.2 drive bays in systems that already expose a Mini Slimline SAS SFF-8654 4i interface and can provide SATA power. It is not for installations that require a different internal connector on the controller side, nor for drives that use a pure SATA or M.2 interface without U.2 support. Builders needing a longer or shorter reach should select from the alternative 0.5 m, 0.8 m or 1.0 m variants instead.

Deciding Specification

The defining parameter is the Mini Slimline SAS SFF-8654 4i 38-pin host connector paired with a U.2 SAS 8639 device connector and integrated SATA 15-pin power lead. Verify that your controller or backplane presents exactly this 38-pin interface and that the target drive accepts U.2 SAS 8639 with SATA power before purchasing.

Questions about this item

What connector on the motherboard or backplane does the SFF-8654 38P end plug into?

The 38-pin Mini Slimline SAS SFF-8654 4i connector plugs directly into a matching SFF-8654 4i port on the host controller or backplane.

Which step is often missed when connecting the SATA 15P power lead?

The SATA 15-pin male power plug must be seated firmly into a SATA power connector from the PSU before the U.2 drive will receive power.

When should the 32AWG cable be inspected or replaced?

Inspect the 32AWG high-frequency wire if you notice intermittent 24G link errors or physical kinks after repeated chassis maintenance.
