InLine SAS low-profile-adapterhållare extern SFF-8088 / intern SFF-8087

The InLine SAS Low Profile Adapter Bracket (model 27650) is a passive PCB adapter that provides an external 26-pin Mini SAS (SFF-8088) connector on one side and an internal 36-pin Mini SAS (SFF-8087) connector on the other. Designed for low-profile slots, the bracket supports bidirectional connection between external SFF-8088 and internal SFF-8087 interfaces and is intended for use in compact systems, server blades, rack stations and external disk enclosures where SAS/SCSI connectivity is required.

Advantages

This adapter bracket offers a low-profile form factor for installation in slim chassis, passive operation without active electronics, and straightforward compatibility between external SFF-8088 and internal SFF-8087 Mini SAS connectors. The single-piece bracket (model 27650) simplifies routing of SAS cabling and supports common storage and server environments.

How to use

Mount the adapter bracket in a compatible low-profile slot of the system chassis. Connect an external Mini SAS cable to the SFF-8088 connector and an internal Mini SAS cable to the SFF-8087 connector on the opposite side. Ensure both ends are fully seated and secured according to the host and enclosure hardware instructions. The adapter supports connection in either direction without additional configuration.

Recommendations

Use appropriate shielded Mini SAS cables and confirm compatibility of host controllers and enclosures with SFF-8087/SFF-8088 interfaces. Install or remove the bracket only with the system powered down to avoid connector damage and ensure proper grounding to reduce interference.
