Supermicro CBL-SAST-0803 SAS x8 LE a 2x MINI HDx4 INT 37/30 - Cable - Digital/Datos

Server storage performance often suffers when internal cabling cannot keep up with high-speed SAS drives. The Supermicro CBL-SAST-0803 solves this by providing a reliable, high-bandwidth link between your host controller and backplane or drives. This 30-inch internal cable features Mini-SAS HD (SFF-8643) connectors on both ends, supporting SAS 3.0 at 12 Gbps per lane. With four lanes per connector, it delivers up to 48 Gbps of aggregate throughput, ensuring your storage array operates at full speed without bottlenecks. Built for Supermicro servers and storage systems, it is also compatible with any standard SAS infrastructure using SFF-8643 ports.

Who is it for

IT administrators and system builders who need a dependable internal SAS connection for servers, workstations, or storage enclosures. It is ideal for upgrading existing systems to SAS 3.0, connecting a RAID controller to a backplane, or linking multiple drives in a dense storage configuration. Whether you are assembling a new server or replacing a faulty cable, this product ensures stable data transfer and easy cable management.

Tips

Ensure your controller and drives support SAS 3.0 to take full advantage of the 12 Gbps speed. When routing the cable, avoid sharp bends that could damage the internal conductors. For optimal airflow, secure the cable away from fan intakes using cable ties or routing channels. This cable is not intended for external use; keep it inside the chassis to maintain signal integrity.
