Straight-to-Right-Angle Breakout Cable
This new Vszerda MiniSAS SFF-8087 fan-out cable connects a single SAS controller port to four SATA drives inside a server or storage enclosure. The 0.5-metre length suits tight chassis routing where a short reach keeps airflow clear. It is built for administrators who need reliable 6 Gbps links between a host adapter and direct-attached SATA storage.
Installation Notes
The SFF-8087 plug inserts straight into the controller while each SATA connector angles right, so cable dress follows the drive bay edge without sharp bends. AWG30 twinaxial pairs are stiff; forcing a tight radius can kink the dielectric and raise skew. Verify the controller bracket clears the right-angle bodies before latching, and seat each SATA plug fully to avoid intermittent detection.
Pre-Order Checks
Confirm the controller presents a standard SFF-8087 receptacle and that the enclosure drives use SATA data ports, not SAS-only backplanes. The cable is a forward breakout — host on the SAS end, drives on the SATA end — so it will not work in a reverse topology. Ensure the 100 Ohm impedance matches the controller specification and that 0.5 metres reaches from the card slot to the furthest drive bay.

Questions about this item
How can I verify the SFF-8087 to 4x SATA cable is functioning correctly after installation?
The system BIOS or RAID controller utility should detect all four connected SATA drives at up to 6 Gbps per channel without errors.
What comes with the Vszerda MiniSAS cable and what must I source separately?
The package includes the 0.5 m AWG30 twinaxial breakout cable with a straight SFF-8087 plug and four right-angle SATA connectors; you must provide the SAS controller and SATA drives.
Which version of this breakout cable should I choose for a standard internal RAID controller?
Select the forward breakout SFF-8087 to 4x SATA model with straight-to-right-angle ends for direct host-to-drive connections.
