Description

The Farsince Mini SAS HD SFF-8643 4i to 4x SFF-8482 Fan-Out Cable with Molex Power is designed for internal storage expansion in servers, workstations, and RAID systems. It connects one SFF-8643 host-side interface on an HBA or RAID controller to four SFF-8482 drive-side connectors for multi-drive deployment.

Each branch includes a dedicated 4-pin Molex power lead to simplify internal cabling. This cable is intended for forward breakout applications only. SATA drive support depends on controller and system architecture.
