Areca SlimSAS x8 STR SFF8654 kábel

For high-density internal connections where every millimetre counts, this SlimSAS x8 cable from Areca pairs two straight SFF-8654 connectors with a compact 0.7 m reach. It is built for PCIe Gen4 signalling, so each of the eight lanes can carry up to 16 GT/s without the bulk of traditional internal cables.

Highlights

• SlimSAS x8 (SFF-8654) to SFF-8654, both straight orientation
• Supports PCIe Gen4, SAS, and SATA protocols
• 30 AWG copper conductors with 85 Ohm impedance
• Black PVC jacket, RoHS and UL compliant
• 0.7 m length ideal for short internal runs

In daily use

The straight connectors keep the cable close to the controller and backplane, reducing airflow obstruction in dense server and storage chassis. The 30 AWG conductors remain flexible enough for tidy routing, while the PVC jacket resists abrasion during installation and maintenance. Areca RAID controllers and compatible devices with SFF-8654 ports connect directly without adapters.
