Kabelkit INTEL Mini SAS naar SATA voor serverboard M50CYP2SB1U / M50CYP2SBSTD

Cable kit INTEL Mini SAS to SATA for server board M50CYP2SB1U / M50CYP2SBSTD provides internal Mini SAS to SATA connectivity for compatible INTEL server motherboards. The kit is designed to link the Mini SAS port on the server board to individual SATA drives or drive backplanes, enabling direct connection of SATA storage devices in rack servers and storage enclosures. It is intended for internal data cabling tasks such as drive installation, replacement, upgrades and routine maintenance where standard SAS-to-SATA connections are required.

Advantages

The cable kit offers a compact and reliable cabling solution that reduces installation complexity by converting Mini SAS outputs to multiple SATA connectors without additional adapters. Built for internal server environments, the cables maintain signal integrity for SATA drives and help keep drive bay layouts tidy. Compatibility with the specified server boards ensures straightforward plug-and-play connection and minimizes downtime during storage changes.

Suitable for

• Connecting internal SATA drives to a server board Mini SAS port
• Replacing or upgrading storage drives in rack servers and storage arrays
• Wiring drive backplanes or hot-swap bays to motherboard SAS/SATA outputs
• Server maintenance tasks that require direct SAS-to-SATA wiring

Key specifications

• Connector type: Mini SAS on motherboard side to multiple SATA on drive side
• Intended use: internal server/data center cabling
• Cable orientation: internal, low-profile routing for rack chassis
• Signal support: SATA data signalling for connected drives
• Construction: shielded multi-wire assembly suitable for server environments

How to use

Power down the server and follow ESD precautions before beginning installation. Locate the Mini SAS port on the server board and align the kit connector with the port keyed orientation; insert firmly until seated. Route the cables through the chassis to avoid obstructing airflow or drive bays, then connect the SATA ends to the corresponding drive connectors or backplane headers. Verify secure seating of all connectors, reassemble chassis panels if removed, and power on the server. Confirm detection of connected SATA drives in system firmware or operating system and perform any required drive configuration.

Recommendations

Use the cable kit only for internal connections; avoid external exposure to reduce risk of mechanical damage. Keep cable lengths neat and secured with existing chassis tie points to maintain airflow and cooling efficiency. When performing hot-swap operations, follow manufacturer procedures for drive removal and insertion and ensure proper grounding and ESD protection when handling connectors.
