Cable Gigabyte 25CF9-600721-M0R MCIO x8 a 10x SATA3

Link up to ten SATA drives through a single MCIO x8 port with this high-density internal data cable from Gigabyte. Engineered for servers, workstations, and storage systems, it delivers 6 Gbps per channel with robust shielding to keep data clean.

Overview

The Gigabyte 25CF9-600721-M0R is a specialized internal data cable that converts one MCIO x8 (Mini Cool Edge IO x8) host connector into ten individual SATA III 7-pin device connectors. This allows a single high-speed port on a motherboard, RAID controller, or HBA to manage up to ten SATA hard drives or SSDs, simplifying cable routing and maximizing storage density in compact chassis.

What stands out

• High-density fan-out: one MCIO x8 port drives ten SATA III devices.
• Full 6 Gbps throughput per SATA channel for fast data transfers.
• Foil-shielded twisted pairs minimize EMI/RFI interference.
• Backward compatible with SATA II (3 Gbps) and SATA I (1.5 Gbps).
• 70 cm length offers flexibility for various chassis layouts.
• RoHS compliant construction with durable PVC jacket.
