Mini sas SFF-8088 plug / SFF-8432 plug*4

Description

Mini sas SFF-8088 plug / SFF-8432 plug*4 External Cable Assembly – Mini SAS 4x to SFP+ Fanout for High-Speed Networking and Storage

The SFF-8088 plug to 4× SFF-8432 plug external cable assembly is a high-performance fanout solution designed to convert a single Mini SAS 4x interface into four independent SFP+ (10G) channels. This hybrid cable enables seamless integration between SAS-based host systems and SFP+ networking or storage devices, making it ideal for data centers, enterprise infrastructure, and high-performance computing environments.

Key Features:

• Connector Configuration:
  • SFF-8088 plug (Mini SAS 4x)
  • 4 × SFF-8432 plugs (SFP+ 10G)
• External Cable Assembly: Designed for device-to-device or rack-to-rack connectivity in structured cabling environments.
• Wire Gauge Range: Supports AWG 32 to AWG 24, offering flexibility for cable length and signal performance.
• Controlled Impedance: Maintains a 100-ohm differential impedance, ensuring excellent signal integrity and minimal crosstalk.
• High-Speed Data Transfer: Supports up to 40 Gbps aggregate bandwidth (4 × 10 Gbps), ideal for bandwidth-intensive applications.
• Robust Shielding: Provides superior EMI/RFI protection in high-density environments.
• RoHS Compliant: Manufactured in accordance with environmental standards for hazardous substances.

Applications:

• Hybrid Networking & Storage Systems: Bridges SAS-based controllers to SFP+ switches, NICs, or storage targets.
• Data Centers: Enables high-throughput interconnects between legacy SAS infrastructure and modern 10G Ethernet platforms.
• High-Performance Computing (HPC): Supports low-latency, multi-channel connectivity across compute clusters and storage arrays.
• Enterprise Infrastructure: Ideal for scalable deployments requiring SAS-to-SFP+ fanout for mixed-protocol environments.
• Telecommunications & Embedded Systems: Facilitates reliable external signal routing for control and transport systems.
