  • Connects OCuLink controller to dual SFF-8654 backplane
  • 16 Gbps data rate for fast SSD throughput

  • 50 cm length fits compact server chassis
  • 80-pin SFF-8611 to dual 4-lane SFF-8654

OCuLink 8x to Dual SFF-8654 Cable

This 50cm active cable bridges an OCuLink SFF-8611 8x 80-pin male connector to two SFF-8654 Slimline 4x male connectors. It links a controller or backplane with an OCuLink 8x interface to dual internal SSD devices. Data transfer reaches up to 16Gbps across the link.

Installation Notes

The active latch on the OCuLink end secures the connection firmly inside the chassis. Route the 50cm length to avoid sharp bends that could stress the active circuitry. Ensure both SFF-8654 ports align correctly with the target backplane slots before locking them down.

Suitable Builds

This suits builders connecting a single OCuLink 8x host port to a dual-drive backplane or enclosure. It does not suit systems lacking an OCuLink 8x 80-pin interface or installations needing a longer reach than 50cm.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the 16Gbps active link is working after connecting the SFF-8611 8x end to my controller?

The controller BIOS or operating system should enumerate each attached drive at the expected PCIe link speed, confirming the 8-lane connection is active.

What connectors and length are included, and is a separate power cable required?

The box contains one 50cm active cable with an SFF-8611 80-pin male plug on one side and two SFF-8654 male plugs on the other; no extra power cable is needed.

Which version matches a backplane that uses SFF-8654 4x ports?

This cable splits a single SFF-8611 8x 8-lane port into two SFF-8654 4x connections, so choose it when your backplane has dual SFF-8654 4x inputs.
