With male connectors, it ensures a secure connection for optimal performance. Ideal for connecting servers and storage devices, this cable is designed for durability and efficiency.

## Long description

BlueLAN BL484801G5M30 is a 5-meter MiniSAS (SFF-8088 to SFF-8088) 4-lane external cable designed for linking external SAS hardware such as hard drives and storage area networks. The cable supports SAS protocols at up to 6 Gbit/s (backward compatible with 3 Gbit/s) and is available in different lengths and conductor gauges (AWG 28 or 30). It is a passive Twinax copper MiniSAS solution intended for short-distance, high-speed connections in data center and rack environments.
Advantages
The passive design requires no active components in the cable itself, resulting in low latency, low power consumption (approx. 0.1 W), and reduced production complexity. MiniSAS Twinax copper cables are cost-effective and environmentally friendly for professional short-range interconnects, offering high bandwidth and a low failure rate due to their simple construction. Components from established manufacturers are used to ensure reliability.

How to use
Connect one SFF-8088 connector to the external SAS port of your host or controller and the other SFF-8088 connector to the target SAS device or enclosure. Ensure both devices support passive MiniSAS Twinax cables and SAS speeds you intend to use (3 Gbit/s or 6 Gbit/s). Route the cable within the rack or between devices avoiding sharp bends and excessive tension; secure connections and verify link status through your storage controller or operating system tools.
Recommendations
Use the BlueLAN BL484801G5M30 for short-distance external SAS connections within racks or between adjacent racks. Confirm compatibility with your controller or enclosure for passive SFF-8088 cables and choose the appropriate conductor gauge (AWG 28 or 30) and length for optimal signal integrity.
