SATA III data cable Accura ACC2205 — 0.5 m, red

Accura ACC2205 is a 0.5 m red SATA III data cable designed to connect SATA drives to motherboards or controller cards. It supports SATA III transfer rates up to 6 Gbit/s and features a right-angle to straight connector configuration that helps manage cables inside desktop PCs, workstations and storage assemblies. The short length reduces signal degradation and clutter while maintaining compatibility with 3.5" and 2.5" HDDs and SSDs that use the SATA interface.

Advantages

The cable provides full support for SATA III speeds and backwards compatibility with SATA I/II devices. Its compact 0.5 m length is useful for tight internal layouts where a longer cable would create excess slack. The combination of a right-angle and a straight connector simplifies routing in confined spaces and reduces strain on drive connectors. The red jacket makes the cable easy to identify among other internal wiring.

Suitable for

• Connecting 2.5" and 3.5" SATA HDDs and SSDs to desktop motherboards
• Short internal connections in compact PC cases and workstations
• Storage assemblies and drive bays where tidy cable routing is required
• Replacing worn or damaged short SATA data leads

Key specifications

• Interface: SATA III (backwards compatible with SATA I/II)
• Maximum data transfer rate: up to 6 Gbit/s
• Length: 0.5 m
• Connector configuration: right-angle to straight
• Cable color: red

How to use

Align the cable connectors with the SATA port on the motherboard or controller and the SATA port on the drive, ensuring the keyed connector orientation matches. Insert the straight end into the motherboard/controller and the right-angle end into the drive to optimize space; apply gentle, even pressure until the connector seats. Avoid bending the cable sharply near the ends and ensure the cable does not pinch against case edges or other components.

Usage recommendations

For reliable performance, use the cable for short internal connections and avoid excessive cable tension or extreme bending radii. When installing in compact cases, route the cable along chassis channels or tie-down points to reduce movement and improve airflow. Inspect connectors before installation for debris or damage, and replace the cable if connectors show signs of wear.
