CBL-SAST-0934-12 Supermicro 50cm Cable

High-Density Internal NVMe Storage Interconnect Cable enabling OCuLink backplane routing with the CBL-SAST-0934-12

The CBL-SAST-0934-12 is an internal OCuLink (SFF-8611) to OCuLink (SFF-8611) 8-lane cable engineered to link NVMe/U.2/U.3 backplanes with host bus adapters or RAID controllers in modern Supermicro server platforms. In PCIe-based storage designs, signal integrity and deterministic routing directly impact link training stability and sustained I/O, making the CBL-SAST-0934-12 a critical component for predictable NVMe connectivity in dense chassis.

With a 50 cm run length, the CBL-SAST-0934-12 supports practical cable management in 1U and 2U systems where airflow, service loops, and backplane-to-slot distance must be balanced without compromising maintainability. The 8-lane OCuLink architecture aligns with high-throughput PCIe expansion layouts, enabling clean interconnect paths between storage backplanes and add-in controllers while reducing deployment risk during upgrades or field replacement. The CBL-SAST-0934-12 is suited to storage-intensive workloads that depend on consistent low latency, high queue depth behavior, and reliable internal interconnects.

Why Choose the CBL-SAST-0934-12?

The CBL-SAST-0934-12 provides a disciplined, data center-ready interconnect choice for scaling NVMe drive counts without introducing fragile cabling practices. By using standardized OCuLink endpoints and an 8-lane topology, it supports high-density storage configurations with repeatable assembly, predictable serviceability, and reduced troubleshooting time during platform expansion or controller replacement.

Supermicro designs infrastructure components to integrate tightly with enterprise server mechanicals and backplane ecosystems, prioritizing compatibility, lifecycle availability, and robust operation under continuous duty. RoHS compliance and field-replaceable intent align the cable with modern data center maintenance and governance requirements.

Key Applications:

• NVMe/U.2/U.3 backplane to HBA interconnect
