ipolex MiniSAS HD SFF-8643 to SFF-8088 Dual-Channel Adapter Cable, 12Gbps/6Gbps SAS 3.0/2.0, 30AWG for HBA/Backplane & Legacy Storage, 0.5m/1.6ft

ipolex MiniSAS HD SFF-8643 to SFF-8088 Dual-Channel Adapter Cable, 12Gbps/6Gbps SAS 3.0/2.0, 30AWG for HBA/Backplane & Legacy Storage, 0.5m/1.6ft

• Dual-Channel SAS 3.0/2.0 Hybrid Compatibility‌: Enables ‌12Gbps (SAS 3.0) to 6Gbps (SAS 2.0) backward compatibility‌, seamlessly bridging modern MiniSAS HD controllers (SFF-8643) with legacy SFF-8088 backplanes, JBODs, or tape libraries. Insert Loss: ≤ -9dB.
• Enterprise-Grade 30AWG Shielding‌: Built with ‌triple-layer EMI-resistant shielding‌ and oxygen-free copper conductors to prevent signal degradation in high-density racks, ensuring error-free data transfers for HBA cards (e.g., LSI 9300-8i) and SAS expanders.
• Legacy Storage Infrastructure Upgrade‌: Cost-effective solution to connect ‌newer SAS 3.0 HBAs‌ to older SAS 2.0 storage systems (e.g., Dell PowerVault MD1200, HP MSA 2042) without replacing entire chassis or controller cards.
• Tool-Free Hot-Swap Readiness‌: Fully compliant with ‌SMPTE 12G and SAS-2 standards‌, supporting hot-swap drive replacements in RAID arrays or DAS environments. Slim 0.3m length optimizes cable management in 1U/2U servers.
• Secure Locking Latches & Durability‌: Features ‌positive-latch SFF-8643/8088 connectors‌ with reinforced stress relief, rated for 10,000+ insertions. Ideal for edge computing nodes or mobile rack-mounted systems requiring vibration resistance. Full and low profile bracket included.
