SlimSAS SFF-8654 8i to 2x 4i cable

This Vszerda SlimSAS cable connects an 8-lane SFF-8654 port to two 4-lane SFF-8654 connectors. It is built for internal SAS and PCIe 4.0 links in servers, workstations and storage arrays. The 0.8 m ribbon design keeps the routing tidy inside dense chassis.

Suits builds that split one 8i port into two 4i

It suits administrators who need to branch a single wide port to a pair of narrower drives or backplanes. Builds that require a straight 8i-to-8i link or a different connector family should choose another cable.

24 Gbps over 85-ohm impedance

The cable is specified for 24 Gbps signalling with an 85-ohm differential impedance. This rating decides whether the link meets the error budget for PCIe 4.0 and 24 G SAS channels.

Questions about this item

Does the 0.8 m, 85-ohm ribbon cable add noticeable heat or power draw when running 24 Gbps links all day?

The cable is passive with 85-ohm impedance and carries up to 24 Gbps without active components, so it adds no measurable heat or power consumption during continuous operation.

What host connectors must my server already have to plug in this SFF-8654 8i to 2x SFF-8654 4i assembly?

You need a single SFF-8654 8i port on the host side; the cable splits it into two SFF-8654 4i connectors for the target devices.

Will the straight-to-straight 0.8 m length reach between a PCIe 4.0 backplane and an older SAS HBA in the same chassis?

The 0.8 m ribbon design supports PCIe 4.0 and SAS protocols, and its low-profile connectors fit tight server layouts, making it suitable for linking newer backplanes to legacy HBAs within a single chassis.
