ACTIDATA SAS Y-kabel extern, Mini SAS HD SFF-8644 naar 2x Mini SAS HD SFF-8644, 2m

The ACTIDATA SAS Y-Cable is a high-performance external cable designed to connect SAS controllers to external SAS enclosures or JBODs. Featuring a Mini SAS HD SFF-8644 host connector that splits into two Mini SAS HD SFF-8644 device connectors, this Y-cable enables efficient data distribution and redundancy in storage environments. With support for SAS 3.0 (12 Gbps per lane) and backward compatibility with SAS 2.0 and 1.0, it ensures reliable high-speed data transfer.

Advantages

This Y-cable simplifies cabling by combining two device connections into one host port, reducing clutter and improving airflow. Its gold-plated contacts and robust shielding minimize signal loss and electromagnetic interference, ensuring stable performance even in demanding data center environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting SAS HBAs or RAID controllers to external SAS storage enclosures
