SATA-kabel S/CONN 78243-0.5 0,5 m SATA 7-pin rood

The S/CONN 78243-0.5 is a 0.5 m SATA cable designed to connect internal storage devices using a standard SATA 7-pin interface. Intended for SATA I systems, this red cable provides a compact connection solution for motherboards, hard drives and optical drives where a short, reliable link is required. The cable’s 7-pin connectors on both ends match typical SATA data ports, enabling straightforward installation in desktop PCs and workstations.

Advantages

This 0.5 m SATA cable offers a short, tidy routing option to reduce cable clutter inside the chassis while maintaining a standard SATA 7-pin interface for compatibility with SATA I devices. The red jacket improves visibility for system assembly and maintenance, and the matched 7-pin connectors ensure consistent signal alignment. Its modest length helps minimize signal degradation on SATA I links when devices are positioned close to the motherboard.

Suitable for

• Connecting internal SATA I hard drives and SSDs to motherboard SATA ports
• Linking optical drives to SATA data headers inside desktop PCs
• Compact or small-form-factor builds where short cable runs are needed
• Organized cable routing and visible identification in multi-drive systems

Key specifications

• Cable type: SATA I
• Cable length: 0.5 m
• Connectors: SATA 7-pin to SATA 7-pin
• Colour: Red

How to use

Align the 7-pin SATA connector with the corresponding port on the motherboard or storage device, ensuring the connector’s keyed shape matches the port orientation. Gently insert until the connector is fully seated; no tools are required. Use the same procedure for the device end. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and to maintain clearance from fans and heat sources. For best results, keep the cable run as short and direct as possible within the chassis.

Recommendations

Use this cable for SATA I data connections and in setups where a short, visible cable helps with assembly and maintenance. Avoid excessive bending near the connector ends and do not use the cable for SATA power connections. For systems requiring SATA II/III performance over longer distances, consider a cable specified for those interfaces.
