12 Gbps SFF-8643 cable pair

This pack contains two new internal Mini SAS HD cables with SFF-8643 male connectors on both ends. Each cable measures 0.5 metres and supports up to 12 Gbps data transfer over copper conductors. They link SAS controllers or RAID cards to backplanes inside servers and storage enclosures.

Suits SAS 3.0 backplane links

Builders wiring 12 Gbps SAS or SATA backplanes to HBA or RAID controllers will find the correct connector and length here. The 30 AWG ribbon design eases routing in dense chassis. Buyers who need longer reach, external ports, or a different connector type should look at something else.

12 Gbps per lane speed

The cable is rated for 12 Gbps per lane across four lanes, matching SAS 3.0 specifications. This throughput determines whether the link can feed high-performance SSD arrays without bottlenecking the controller.

Questions about this item

What comes in the 2-pack and do I need any extra brackets or screws?

The pack contains two SFF-8643 to SFF-8643 cables, each 0.5 m long with male-to-male connectors. No brackets or screws are included.

Should I pick the 0.5 m length or a longer one for a 16-bay backplane?

Choose the 0.5 m cable when the controller and backplane are close together; the 30 AWG ribbon design eases routing in tight chassis. Longer lengths are not in this pack.

What does the 12 Gbps rating mean when the cable is connected to a RAID controller and SAS backplane?

It supports SAS 3.0 at 12 Gbps per lane across four lanes, so a 16-port HBA can deliver full bandwidth to a 16-bay backplane.
