Supermicro CBL-SAST-0914-100 - Cable - Digital/Data

When a single Mini-SAS HD port must feed four SATA drives, ordinary cables force compromises. The Supermicro CBL-SAST-0914-100 eliminates that bottleneck with a clean one-to-four breakout that keeps signal integrity intact across every lane. Built for dense server and storage environments, this 1-metre internal cable turns one SFF-8643 controller port into four independent SATA channels without adapters or clutter.

Highlights

• Mini-SAS HD (SFF-8643) host connector to four SATA 7-pin device connectors
• Supports SAS 3.0 speeds up to 12 Gbps per lane and SATA III up to 6 Gbps per port
• 100 cm length fits standard ATX and rack-mount chassis cable routing
• Gold-plated connectors and full shielding for reliable hot-plug operation
• RoHS compliant, black jacket, straight connector orientation

In daily use

Route this cable from a SAS/SATA HBA or RAID controller to a backplane or directly to four drives. The breakout design keeps each SATA channel separate, so mixed drive configurations work without cross-talk. Hot-plug support means you can swap drives while the system runs, and the flexible copper conductors make installation easy even around tight corners.
