The Internal Mini SAS Cable assemblies were recently submitted for testing at the SCSI Trade Association (STA)-sponsored 11th Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) Plugfest, held in October 2010 at the University of New Hampshire InterOperability Laboratory (UNH-IOL). Plugfest was an event held to validate the latest SAS 2.1 specification,CBL-SFF8087-05M which underlies the 6Gb/s SAS generation in supporting equipment such as servers, storage, switches, etc. as well as cable assemblies.It has a single 36-pin SFF-8087 90-degree male Internal Mini SAS Cable plug (with locking latch) on one end and has four 7-pin SATA female plugs (with locking latches), plus a single 8-pin female power plug, on the other, allowing you to connect four SATA drives to an SAS controller. This is a Forward Breakout cable, meaning that it is intended to connect to a host/controller on the SAS end and to drives on the SATA end.
