## Description

Product description DIY or PRO Computer Essential The Cable Matters Mini-SAS to 4 SATA Forward Breakout Cable is an essential component of a hardware RAID configuration. This multi-lane forward cable coverts Mini-SAS connectors on RAID controllers (that are often shipped without cables) to 4 SATA drives. The combination of a slim ribbon cable design in a woven mesh sheath with locking connector latches provides a professional installation that minimizes the impact on airflow in a computer case. Storage Expansion Maximize the capacity of your RAID configuration with this robust but flexible cable that is built to withstand 24/7 use. Important Notes Pair with a 4 port SATA to power splitter cable to provide power to the drives Data transfer speed is determined by the capabilities of your SAS controller and SATA drives Built to run 24/7 Easy-grip treads Stainless steel latches P1 to P4 markers Braided sleeve jacket 1 x 36 pin Mini-SAS SFF-8087 – male with latch forward fan-out cable with an internal mSAS connector 4 x 7 pin SATA receptacle – female with latch Compatible with 2.5", 3.5" SATA I, II, III hard drives

Review: Reliable and well-built cable that works perfectly out of the box. - Arrived quickly and well packed with no damage. The cables feel solid and connectors fit snug without any looseness. Worked perfectly with my setup, all drives were detected right away. Good build quality and clean signal, no issues during use. Length is just right for a neat internal layout.
Review: Great product, Highly recommend - I bought these for a NAS I built out of an old Dell T-7400 workstation. Need this cable to attach to a Perc card, connecting to my 4x WesterDigital RED Plus drives. The cable works pert. All in before adding the actual drives a $120 build vs $500 for a new NAS and it was fun to build.

## Features

- Connectors & Compatibility (SFF-8087 → 4×SATA): Internal Mini-SAS SFF-8087 (host/controller side) to 4× SATA 7-pin data (drive side) forward breakout cable. Compatible with RAID/HBA/PCIe storage controllers featuring an SFF-8087 internal Mini-SAS port, connecting up to four SATA HDD/SSD (or a backplane with SATA data inputs). Supports up to 6Gbps (SATA III) per drive; data only—drives require separate SATA power.
- Forward Breakout Only (NOT Reverse): One-way FORWARD fan-out cable: SFF-8087 controller → SATA drives. Not reversible and will not work for motherboard SATA ports → Mini-SAS backplane/controller; that setup requires a REVERSE breakout cable.
- DIY or pro installers both appreciate the convenience of a forward fan-out cable with an internal mSAS connector when expanding storage needs; 3 foot cable harness of SAS to SATA cable provides sufficient length for internal cable management; Slim ribbon cables minimize airflow impact in a computer case
- Flexible design of SAS breakout cable includes acetate cloth tape over slim ribbon cables for strain relief to protect cables without rigidity; Woven mesh sheath covers half of the cable for easy routing; P1 to P4 markers provide easy ID after installation; Low profile SATA connectors have easy-grip treads with stainless steel latches to prevent accidental disconnection and reduce vibration disconnection

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Cable
*by J***B on August 30, 2021*

I needed this SFF 8087 to SATA Forward Breakout Cable, 3.3 feet, which connects the one SFF 8087 Connector on my LSI MegaRAID 9260-8i RAID SBA Card to 4 SATA HDD's. Cables of this type, where you have the one SFF 8087 connector to 4 SATA or SAS HDD's are delicate cables to begin with due to the wire connections, this cable appears well made. The Connectors seem to be of good quality and fit snugly into their receptors, the main leads from the SFF connector are wrapped in a heavy insulator to protect the cables and while I didn't measure the length of this heavy insulator was about halfway on the total cable. The 4 separate leads were smaller wire gauge with a light blue plastic insulator and SATA standard connectors. Each of the 4 connectors were labeled with a simple plastic tag numbered from 1 thru 4 so you can identify each drive connected. I had no problems with communication between the Card and the HDD's, worked perfectly upon installation. The SATA connectors are typical ones that you find on many cables, nothing special, not too hard to install or remove, just press the small spring metal tab and the cable can be removed. They click into place with little effort. In hindsight, I may have tried to find cables with right angle SATA connectors as there wasn't much space between the connector and my case, but it worked without having to bend any wires. Its important that the wires are not crimped when installed. The Cable itself was quite long. I have mine in a large Mid Tower PC Case where the stacked and connected HDD's are to the right of the Motherboard so there was plenty of cable to route around the case. This cable would have been adequate for a larger case as well, either a Server Case or larger tower pc case. The 1.6 foot cable may have also worked but when I ordered it, I didn't want to take any chances on it being too short. Better to run the cable around the perimeter of the case than have it be too short or have to run it too close to a heat source of block airflow. I have other Cable Matters cables and they were of similar good quality, I don't think you can go wrong with this cable.
