Mini sas SFF-8088 plug / eSATA receptacle*4

Description

Mini sas SFF-8088 plug / eSATA receptacle*4 External Cable Assembly – Mini SAS 4x to eSATA Fanout for Legacy Drive Connectivity

The SFF-8088 plug to 4× eSATA receptacle external cable assembly is a specialized fanout solution designed to convert a single Mini SAS 4x interface into four independent eSATA ports. This cable enables seamless integration between high-speed SAS controllers and legacy eSATA-based storage devices, making it ideal for hybrid environments that require flexible external connectivity.

Key Features:

• Connector Configuration:
  • SFF-8088 plug (Mini SAS 4x host interface)
  • 4 × eSATA receptacles (external SATA drive interface)
• External Cable Assembly: Designed for device-to-device or rack-to-rack connections in structured cabling environments.
• Wire Gauge Range: Supports AWG 30 to AWG 24, allowing for optimized signal performance across varying cable lengths.
• Controlled Impedance: Maintains a 100-ohm differential impedance, ensuring stable signal integrity and minimal crosstalk.
• High-Speed Data Transfer: Supports up to 6 Gbps per lane, enabling fast and reliable communication between SAS controllers and eSATA drives.
• Robust Shielding: Provides superior EMI/RFI protection for high-density, high-speed systems.
• RoHS Compliant: Manufactured in accordance with environmental standards for hazardous substances.

Applications:

• Legacy Storage Integration: Connects Mini SAS host adapters to multiple eSATA drives or enclosures.
• Data Centers: Facilitates hybrid storage configurations combining SAS and SATA technologies.
• Enterprise IT Infrastructure: Enables external connectivity between servers and archival or backup eSATA devices.
• RAID & JBOD Enclosures: Supports multi-drive setups with reliable signal transmission.
• Industrial & Embedded Systems: Provides scalable external connectivity for legacy storage platforms.
