grade Mini SAS 26 Pin SFF8088 to 4 x SFF8482 19 15 Pin SAS Function and purpose Converts a single Mini SAS 26pin SFF8088 host interface into four SFF8482 19 15 pin SAS connections, enabling multiple SAS devices to be driven from one host port. Performance Supports a maximum transmission rate of 6 Gbps. Compatibility Compatible with standard SAS controllers and devices that use SFF8088 host connections and SFF8482 interfaces. Actual performance depends on the controller, cables, and attached devices. Construction and quality Built with grade connectors to ensure reliable signal integrity in storage and server environments. Designed to be a compact cable assembly for internal use. Size and form factor Compact internal cable assembly suitable for routing inside servers, storage enclosures, and related chassis. Use scenarios 1) Connect a SAS controller with an SFF8088 port to four SAS drives or expanders within a server or external storage enclosure. 2) Create a small DAS or JBOD setup by distributing one host port to multiple SAS devices. 3) Use in a testing lab to bench multiple SAS devices from a single host controller for performance or compatibility testing. Notes Ensures a straightforward, plugandplay connection between the host and multiple SAS devices while delivering up to 6 Gbps where supported.
