HPE External 1.0m (3ft) Mini-SAS HD 4x to Mini-SAS HD 4x Cable

The HPE 716195-B21 is an external cable that features Mini-SAS HD 4x connectors on both ends, creating a direct high-speed link between a host bus adapter and an HPE storage enclosure. At 1.0 meter in length, it offers enough slack to route neatly through a rack while avoiding a tangled mess of excess cable.

Each 36-pin connector follows the SFF-8644 standard and carries four data lanes, so it moves Serial Attached SCSI or SATA traffic with the consistent signal quality required in production environments. The easy-latch design clicks firmly into place, keeping the connection secure even when servers are slid out for maintenance or the rack sees vibration.

The cable integrates smoothly with HPE hardware such as the D3600, D3700, and D6020 disk enclosures, along with the H241 Smart Host Bus Adapter. Whether you are expanding capacity, building a new cluster, or replacing a worn cable, it restores full bandwidth without the need for additional adapters or complex setup.

Weighing only 0.2 kg, the cable is light enough for cable arms yet built to withstand repeated moves during equipment changes. Data center administrators, lab engineers, and anyone managing HPE storage stacks will appreciate its blend of flexibility and reliability.
