SAS-kabel BlueOptics BLIS8787-80CM 0,8 m 6 Gbit/s zwart

The BlueOptics BLIS8787-80CM is a 0.8 m Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) cable engineered for reliable high-speed connections in server and storage environments. With SFF-8087 connectors on both ends and a 6 Gbit/s data rate, this cable supports short-range interconnects between host bus adapters, RAID controllers and drive backplanes. The cable is lightweight and supplied in a polybag for easy handling and installation.

Advantages

This SAS cable provides a compact, low-profile connection with consistent 6 Gbit/s performance suitable for dense rack installations. It is built to meet CE, FCC and RoHS compliance, ensuring electromagnetic compatibility and material safety. The 0.8 m length offers a balance between flexibility and signal integrity for internal server routing, while the SFF-8087 terminations enable compatibility with common enterprise storage hardware.

Suitable for

• Connecting RAID controllers to drive backplanes in rack and tower servers
• Short internal interconnects between host bus adapters and storage enclosures
• Replacement or upgrade of existing 6 Gbit/s SAS links in enterprise systems

Key specifications

• Interface: Serial Attached SCSI (SAS)
• Connector type: SFF-8087 on both ends
• Length: 0.8 m
• Maximum data rate: 6 Gbit/s
• Weight: 160 g
• Packaging: polybag
• Standards compliance: CE, FCC, RoHS

How to use

Route the cable inside the server or storage chassis to avoid sharp bends and sources of mechanical stress. Align each SFF-8087 connector with the corresponding port on the controller or backplane and insert until the latch engages, ensuring a secure connection. Verify that cable length is appropriate to maintain clean routing and adequate airflow within the chassis. Power down equipment before installing or removing internal cables when recommended by the hardware manufacturer.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the cable for internal connections at distances up to 0.8 m and avoid excessive bending radii. Maintain compliance with your hardware vendor's installation guidelines and handle connectors by their housings to prevent contact damage. Consider cable routing that preserves airflow and minimizes interference from power cables and fans.
