Cabo SAS externo SFF-8088 para SFF-8644 - 3m Mini-SAS para Mini-SAS HD - AWG 28

Data centers and server rooms often require reliable, high-speed connections between external SAS controllers and storage enclosures. The STORESYS SAS-8844-3 external SAS cable links a Mini-SAS SFF-8088 port to a Mini-SAS HD SFF-8644 port, providing a robust 3-meter link for your storage infrastructure. With four lanes capable of up to 12 Gbps each, this cable ensures smooth data flow for demanding applications.

Key specifications

• Connector A: Mini-SAS External (SFF-8088)
• Connector B: Mini-SAS HD External (SFF-8644)
• Length: 3 meters (9.84 feet)
• Wire gauge: 28 AWG
• Data transfer rate: up to 12 Gbps per lane (SAS 3.0)
• Number of lanes: 4 (x4)
• Impedance: 100 Ohm
• Backward compatibility: SAS 2.0 (6 Gbps), SAS 1.0 (3 Gbps)

Why choose it

This cable is built for reliability in high-density storage environments. The double shielding reduces electromagnetic interference, while gold-plated contacts resist corrosion and ensure consistent connectivity. Hot-plug capability allows for easy maintenance and upgrades without downtime. The 3-meter length offers flexibility in rack layouts, and the 28 AWG wire balances performance with manageability.

Ideal use cases

• Connecting external SAS HBAs or RAID controllers to SAS drive enclosures
• Expanding storage capacity in servers and workstations
• Data backup and archival systems
• High-performance computing clusters requiring fast external storage

Good to know

The SFF-8644 connector is the newer high-density version of the SFF-8088, allowing for more ports in the same space. This cable is backward compatible, so it can be used with older SAS equipment as well. The PVC jacket is durable and suitable for indoor use. Ensure both ends are securely connected to avoid signal loss.
