Product details
Description
The OIKWAN Internal Mini SAS to SATA Cable is a high-performance data migration solution designed for connecting a 12 Gbps host bus adapter or RAID controller to four discrete SATA drives. Perfect for IT professionals, server administrators, and tech enthusiasts upgrading their network storage, this SFF-8643 to SATA forward breakout cable allows seamless integration into high-density storage systems.
Featuring a 36-pin HD Mini-SAS male connector on one end and four 7-pin SATA connectors on the other, it bridges the gap when migrating from older 6 Gbps architectures to advanced 12 Gbps storage area network environments. The robust design includes an acetate cloth tape barrier over thin ribbon cables for flexible strain relief without rigid clutter, while a woven mesh sheath protects half the length for clean routing inside crowded server chassis.
Low-profile SATA plugs with easy-grip treads and stainless steel latches guarantee a secure connection, eliminating accidental disconnections from server vibration. It provides multiple lanes of high-speed traffic optimized for reliable, continuous operational uptime.
How to use
- Verify that your motherboard or RAID controller is equipped with a Mini-SAS SFF-8643 port, as this cable is designed for host-to-target forward breakout configurations and will not function if connected to a backplane.
- Insert the 36-pin HD Mini-SAS connector into your controller card until it clicks securely.
- Route the four discrete SATA breakaway lines to your individual hard drives or solid-state drives using the P1 through P4 markers for sequential mapping.
- Secure each 7-pin SATA plug into the target drive ensuring the stainless steel latch engages fully, and connect a separate 4-port SATA power splitter cable to supply adequate power to the storage drives.
Ingredients

FAQs
What is an SFF-8643 to SATA cable used for?
It is used to connect a high-density RAID controller or Host Bus Adapter equipped with an SFF-8643 port to multiple internal SATA hard drives or solid-state drives. This allows a single controller port to interface with up to four independent storage drives for expanded data capacity.
Does this OIKWAN cable work in reverse from a motherboard SATA to a SAS backplane?
No, this is a forward breakout cable designed to go from an SFF-8643 host controller to SATA drives. It will not function in reverse to connect motherboard SATA ports to an SFF-8643 backplane.
What data transfer speeds does this internal breakout cable support?
The cable supports up to 12 Gbps overall throughput at the host controller end. It maintains full backwards compatibility, delivering reliable 6 Gbps and 3 Gbps transfer speeds per discrete SATA lane depending on your drive capabilities.
Is this OIKWAN SFF-8643 cable an authentic imported item available in India?
Yes, this is an authentic USA-imported product. Dropy sources these specialized networking components directly from reliable suppliers in the USA, ensuring genuine build quality and performance for Indian server setups.
Does the cable supply power to the connected SATA hard drives?
No, this cable only transfers data signals. You will need to use a separate power connection, such as a 4-pin or 15-pin SATA power splitter cable from your computer power supply, to power the drives.
