MiniSAS cable CBO 2202502-2, 1 m length

MiniSAS cable CBO model 2202502-2 is a 1 m interconnect cable for MiniSAS-compatible storage and server equipment. Designed for short-range connections, this cable carries high-speed data between controllers, RAID arrays, host bus adapters (HBAs) and external enclosures. The compact form factor and standardized MiniSAS interface make the cable suitable for rack and desktop installations where reliable signal integrity and simple cabling are required.

Advantages

The cable provides a compact, high-density connection that supports multi-lane MiniSAS links with consistent signal performance over short distances. Its 1 m length reduces excess slack in tightly arranged racks, while the connector design ensures secure mating and straightforward installation. The cable is suitable for environments where predictable electrical characteristics and minimal cable bulk are important.

Suitable for

• Connecting RAID controllers to external storage enclosures
• Linking HBAs to disk backplanes or JBOD units
• Short-range interconnects in server racks and data cabinets
• Compact desktop or lab test setups with MiniSAS ports

Key specifications

• Interface type: MiniSAS multi-lane connector
• Cable length: 1 meter
• Application: internal and short external SAS/SATA interconnects for storage and server equipment
• Signal type: high-speed differential data lanes suitable for SAS transmission
• Design: compact, low-profile connector for high-density installations

How to use

Ensure both devices have compatible MiniSAS ports and that the system is powered down if required by the equipment manufacturer. Align the connector and insert it firmly until it seats; avoid forcing the plug at an angle. Route the cable to minimize sharp bends and keep it away from power cables and sources of electromagnetic interference. For multi-drive configurations, label connections if needed to preserve channel mapping and simplify future maintenance.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this 1 m MiniSAS cable for short links within racks or between adjacent enclosures. Avoid kinking the cable and maintain recommended bend radius; replace the cable if connector wear or intermittent connectivity appears. Confirm compatibility with storage controllers and HBAs before deployment.
