DELOCK cavo PCIe 4.0 slim SAS SFF-8654 8i (0,5 m) modello 82303

DELOCK PCIe 4.0 Slim SAS Cable SFF-8654 8i to (0.5 m) model 82303 is a short, high-speed internal cable designed for server and storage systems. It provides a compact connection between devices using SFF-8654 8i interfaces and supports PCIe 4.0 bandwidth for demanding data transfer tasks. The 0.5 m length is intended for internal rackmount or chassis layouts where space is limited and signal integrity is critical.

Advantages

The slim form factor reduces cable bulk and improves airflow inside racks and enclosures while maintaining high data throughput compatible with PCIe 4.0 signalling. The cable is optimized for short-distance internal connections, offering reliable link performance for RAID controllers, host bus adapters and storage enclosures. Its design focuses on preserving signal quality and minimizing interference in dense server environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting RAID controllers to backplanes or storage enclosures
• Internal connections between HBAs and drive bays in servers
• Short-distance links in compact rackmount systems and chassis
• High-speed storage setups requiring PCIe 4.0 bandwidth over internal cabling

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFF-8654 8i (both ends compatible with SFF-8654 8i interfaces)
• Supported interface: PCIe 4.0 bandwidth for SAS links
• Length: 0.5 m (short internal cable)
• Form factor: slim profile for reduced cable bulk and improved airflow
• Application: internal server and storage interconnects for RAID, HBA and enclosures

How to use

Install the cable by firmly seating each SFF-8654 8i connector into the corresponding port on the controller, HBA or storage backplane. Route the cable inside the chassis to avoid obstructing fans or airflow, and secure it with cable ties or retention features where available. Because the cable is intended for internal use, ensure connectors are aligned and fully inserted before powering the system to prevent faulty connections and ensure optimal signal integrity.

Recommendations

For best results, use this slim SAS cable for short internal connections within the same chassis or closely placed rack units. Avoid sharp bends and excessive twisting; maintain gentle cable radii to preserve signal performance. Verify compatibility with your controller or backplane specifications and follow ESD precautions when handling internal components.
