Internal Mini SAS SFF-8087 36P to Four SATA 7P Cable

The Internal Mini SAS SFF-8087 36P to Four SATA 7P Forward Breakout Cable is an essential component of a hardware RAID configuration. This multi-lane forward cable coverts Mini-SAS connectors on RAID controllers (that are often shipped without cables) to 4 SATA drives. The combination of a slim ribbon cable design in a woven mesh sheath with locking connector latches provides a professional installation that minimizes the impact on airflow in a computer case.

Features

• Internal Mini SAS data cable connects a RAID or PCIe controller with an SFF-8087 port to 4 discrete SATA drives; Mini SAS to SATA adapter provides reliable internal connectivity between a Serial attached SCSI controller card in a computer system and direct attached storage devices with a SATA connector
• Leverage hardware raid performance with this SATA multi-lane cable; Two cables can connect up to 8 SATA drives to span RAID controller arrays and share performance across two PCIe 2.0 x8 lanes with compatible host bus adapters; Supports up to 6Gbs data transfer rate per drive
• DIY or pro installers both appreciate the convenience of a forward fan-out cable with an internal mSAS connector when expanding storage needs; 3 foot cable harness of SAS to SATA cable provides sufficient length for internal cable management; Slim ribbon cables minimize airflow impact in a computer case
• Flexible design of SAS breakout cable includes acetate cloth tape over slim ribbon cables for strain relief to protect cables without rigidity; Woven mesh sheath covers half of the cable for easy routing; P1 to P4 markers provide easy ID after installation; Low profile SATA connectors have easy-grip treads with stainless steel latches to prevent accidental disconnection and reduce vibration disconnection
