CBL-SAST-0593 Supermicro 60cm Cable

High-Density Internal SAS/SATA Backplane Interconnect Cable with the CBL-SAST-0593 for MiniSAS HD Host-to-Backplane Wiring

The CBL-SAST-0593 is an internal storage cable assembly designed to maintain deterministic SAS/SATA signal paths between an HBA or RAID controller and a server expander or backplane, using MiniSAS HD (SFF-8643) interfaces end-to-end. In rack server architectures where storage performance depends on clean lane mapping and stable link negotiation, the CBL-SAST-0593 provides a purpose-built 4-lane host-to-backplane interconnect that supports consistent drive discovery and predictable I/O behavior across maintenance cycles.

With a 60cm routing length, the CBL-SAST-0593 is engineered for structured chassis cable management, reducing strain on connectors and minimizing airflow obstruction around CPU heatsinks, memory channels, and PCIe expansion zones. The 1x to 1x male MiniSAS HD topology aligns with common internal SAS/SATA storage designs where the controller-side MiniSAS HD port fans into a backplane/expander port, enabling scalable drive bay connectivity without changing the core compute platform. This makes the CBL-SAST-0593 a practical component for sustaining storage architecture integrity during upgrades, controller swaps, or backplane service events.

Why Choose the CBL-SAST-0593?

The CBL-SAST-0593 is selected to preserve system-level reliability by ensuring correct lane continuity and mechanical fit in dense server enclosures. It supports efficient serviceability and repeatable deployment logic across a fleet, helping operations teams standardize internal storage wiring while keeping expansion options open for different HBA/RAID configurations and backplane layouts.

Supermicro designs internal interconnect components to match the mechanical tolerances and platform integration requirements of enterprise server chassis, focusing on maintainable routing, consistent connector engagement, and compliance alignment for modern data centre build standards, including RoHS and REACH.

Key Applications:

• SAS/SATA backplane connectivity in rack servers
• HBA/RAID controller to expander interconnect
• Server maintenance and cable replacement standardization
• Storage bay expansions in compatible Supermicro platforms
