Connection standard

This is a new Vszerda SFF-8088 to SFF-8088 SAS cable measuring 1.6 feet. It uses 26-pin male connectors at both ends and is rated for 3 Gbps transfer speed with 100-ohm impedance. The assembly supports SAS 2.0 protocol and works with both SAS and SATA devices in external storage configurations.

Deployment fit

The short length suits rack-to-rack links in servers, DAS units and RAID arrays where equipment sits close together. Builders who need longer reach between racks or a different connector type should choose a different cable.

Critical specification

The SFF-8088 interface and 3 Gbps rating determine whether this cable matches your controller and enclosure ports. Verify both ends require this exact connector before purchase.

Questions about this item

Which controller ports does the SFF-8088 cable plug into?

Both ends carry a male SFF-8088 Mini-SAS connector, so each side must mate with a female SFF-8088 port on a RAID controller, HBA or external enclosure.

Will the 6Gbps cable work with my 3Gbps SAS drives?

The assembly is backward compatible with 3Gbps SAS 2.0, so existing 3Gbps drives and expanders will negotiate down to their native speed.

How can I verify the link is running at 6Gbps after connecting?

Check the controller BIOS or OS utility for a negotiated link speed of 6Gbps per lane; the AWG26 twinaxial 8-pair wiring with 100-ohm impedance supports that rate.
