Vszerda SFF-8654 8i 74Pin to Dual Oculink SFF-8611 Cable 50cm

SKU CH-PNG0-AVYCE

Connects a Slimline SFF-8654 74-pin backplane to dual Oculink SFF-8611 controllers at 24 Gbps per channel over 50 cm

Cable Length 50 cm

  • Connect backplanes to controllers with 74-pin Slimline SFF-8654 and dual SFF-8611 OCuLink
  • Save chassis space using smaller Ultraport SlimSAS connector and cable assembly
  • Transmit four channels of signal per industry-standard specification
  • Achieve 24 Gbps SAS and 8 GT/s PCIe per channel data speed
  • Built to meet SAS 4.0 and PCIe Gen3/4 specifications

SFF-8654 to Dual Oculink Cable

The Vszerda SFF-8654 8i 74Pin to Dual Oculink SFF-8611 Cable connects a Slimline SAS backplane to a controller with two Oculink ports. It supports PCIe Gen3/4 and SAS 4.0 specifications for servers, data storage and workstations. Each of the four channels delivers 24Gbps for SAS and 8GT/s for PCIe. The 50cm length fits compact chassis layouts.

Verify Connector Types and Lane Count

Check that your backplane uses an SFF-8654 8i 74pin connector and that your controller provides two SFF-8611 Oculink ports. Confirm the controller can split the required lanes across both connectors for the target drives. Ensure the 50cm reach suits your internal routing without strain. The cable is designed for internal device connections only.

Replaces Bulkier Multi-Lane Assemblies

This assembly replaces larger legacy cables that occupy more device space while providing four-channel signal transmission. The upgrade is worthwhile when moving to SAS 4.0 or PCIe Gen4 speeds in dense server or storage builds. It suits installers needing the smaller Ultraport SlimSAS form factor without changing the backplane or controller interface.

Questions about this item

What connectors come on the cable and do I need anything else to plug it in?

The cable has a Slimline SFF-8654 8i 74-pin connector on one end and two SFF-8611 OCuLink connectors on the other. It connects a backplane to a controller directly; no extra adapters are mentioned.

The title lists a single 50 cm length — how do I know if that reach suits my chassis?

The fixed 50 cm length is designed for typical server or workstation internal routing. Measure the distance between your Slimline 8654 backplane port and the dual OCuLink 8611 controller ports to confirm fit.

The spec says 24 Gbps for SAS and 8 GT/s for PCIe per channel — what throughput does that give in a real system?

Each of the four channels runs at 24 Gbps SAS or 8 GT/s PCIe 4.0, so the cable supports the full SAS 4.0 and PCIe Gen 4 link speeds your controller and backplane negotiate.
