CBL-0180L-01 Supermicro 70cm Cable

Enterprise Internal SATA Breakout Cable Assembly for Backplane-to-Drive Connectivity with the CBL-0180L-01

The CBL-0180L-01 is a Supermicro 4-lane SATA breakout multi-cable engineered for internal backplane-to-device routing in dense rack server storage zones. By providing controlled fan-out from a multi-lane source to multiple SATA endpoints, the CBL-0180L-01 supports predictable signal integrity and consistent cabling discipline across multi-drive chassis builds where airflow, service access, and connector retention are critical.

Designed for SATA storage architectures rather than GPU/CPU interconnects, the CBL-0180L-01 complements modern PCIe-based platforms by stabilizing the last-meter storage path between a chassis backplane and individual SATA devices. This cable assembly enables clean integration of SATA SSDs or HDDs into server configurations where PCIe expansion and memory bandwidth are reserved for compute, while SATA remains the cost-efficient tier for boot, capacity, or warm data. With 8x SATA male connectors in a structured fan-out and staggered leg lengths, the CBL-0180L-01 reduces strain on ports and simplifies routing in front-to-back airflow chassis.

Why Choose the CBL-0180L-01?

The CBL-0180L-01 is optimized for enterprise serviceability and repeatable builds: it standardizes internal SATA fan-out topology, minimizes rework during node replacement, and supports consistent drive mapping across identical server SKUs. For scale-out storage or mixed-workload clusters, the CBL-0180L-01 helps maintain deployment consistency and reduces integration risk when expanding drive counts within validated Supermicro chassis designs.

Supermicro cable assemblies follow an engineering approach focused on platform fit, connector reliability, and long-term maintainability in production data centres. As an OEM-aligned spare, the CBL-0180L-01 is intended to match mechanical tolerances and routing constraints defined in Supermicro system architectures.

Key Applications:

• Internal backplane-to-drive SATA connectivity
• Multi-bay chassis storage fan-out
• OEM service replacement and spares
• Boot and capacity tier SATA drive integration
