Καλώδιο SAS BlueOptics BLIS4387-80CM 0,8 m MiniSAS-HD MiniSAS 6 Gbit/s

The BlueOptics BLIS4387-80CM is a 0.8 m SAS cable with MiniSAS-HD (SFF-8643) to MiniSAS (SFF-8087) connectivity designed for internal server and storage interconnections. It supports SAS transfer rates up to 6 Gbit/s, is RoHS compliant and weighs approximately 160 g. The cable is intended for short-distance, high-bandwidth links between drives, controllers and storage enclosures in data center and enterprise environments. It is a passive MiniSAS hybrid cable that relies on host and device hardware for signal processing and is available with a manufacturer-backed 5-year warranty.

Advantages

The passive design yields a simple, robust connection with a low failure rate and reduced maintenance needs. The BlueOptics 0.8 m MiniSAS cable supports both 3 Gbit/s and 6 Gbit/s SAS protocols, offering backward compatibility with older SAS equipment while enabling full 6 Gbit/s throughput where supported. Its compact 0.8 m length helps keep rack cable management tidy and reduces signal attenuation compared with longer runs. RoHS compliance and the use of industry-standard connectors ensure compatibility across a wide range of servers, RAID controllers and storage modules.

Suitable for

• Connecting internal SAS hard drives and SSDs to host controllers
• Linking storage enclosures, backplanes and RAID controllers in racks
• Short-distance high-bandwidth links in data centers and server rooms
• Upgrading or replacing existing MiniSAS connections in enterprise systems

How to use

Power off the host system and target storage devices before installing the cable. Insert the SFF-8643 connector into the MiniSAS-HD port on the host or controller and the SFF-8087 connector into the target backplane or drive enclosure, ensuring proper orientation and secure seating. After connections are made, power on devices and verify that the host recognizes attached SAS devices through system firmware or operating system storage utilities. Because the cable is passive, ensure that connected hardware supports passive MiniSAS hybrid cables for correct signal handling.

Recommendations

Use this 0.8 m BlueOptics MiniSAS cable for short internal connections inside racks or chassis to minimize cable clutter and maintain signal integrity. Avoid sharp bends and excessive strain on connectors, and route the cable away from high-power or high-interference sources. For multi-cable installations, maintain proper airflow and secure cables to prevent movement during maintenance operations.
