ipolex 12G External Mini SAS HD SFF-8644 to SFF-8644 Cable for Server, Raid Card & PCI Express Controller, 1-m(3.3ft)($21.99Value)

Description

SAS 3.0 12Gbps Full Duplex‌: Engineered for SAS 3.0 (12Gbps) dual-port communication, this SFF-8644 to SFF-8644 cable enables simultaneous bidirectional data transfer, doubling effective bandwidth to 24Gbps for high-speed storage arrays and data centers. Enterprise Device Compatibility‌: Certified for Dell PowerEdge/HPE ProLiant servers, Broadcom/LSI RAID cards, and JBOD enclosures. Supports SAS/SATA HDD/SSD hot-swap via Mini SAS HD external ports. Active-Optimized Signal Integrity‌: Featuring impedance-controlled twinaxial wires and gold-plated connectors, ensures error-free transmission up to 12Gbps even in EMI-heavy environments. Exceeds SFF-8644 specification for insertion loss (<-12dB @ 6GHz). Data Center Durability‌: Reinforced strain relief and 10,000+ mating cycles withstand rack-mount vibrations. Operating temperature -40°C to +85°C for 24/7 mission-critical storage workloads. Future-Proof Scalability‌: Backward compatible with SAS 2.0 (6Gbps) devices while ready for NVMe-oF storage evolution. Ideal for expanding existing SAN/NAS infrastructure without protocol bottlenecks.

12G SAS HD Cable SFF-8644, 0.5~7 meters

Ipolex‘s External SAS HD (SFF-8644 ) receptacle assembly is the next-generation SAS high-speed I/O interface. This interface was adopted for the SAS 2.1 standard and proposed for SAS 3.0 standard and is designed to support 6G and future 12G SAS applications.    The passive Mini SAS HD copper cable assembly is up to 12Gbps data rates per channel. The EEPROM signature enables the host to identify what type and length of cable is connected to its port, and can be customized for any application. An improved latch design reduces the insertion force and increases the retention force.
