What are the Core Advantages of SFF-8654
Blazing 24 Gb/s Bandwidth
Achieve double the speed of prior generations with SAS 4.0 and PCIe 4.0 (16 GT/s) support, empowering data-intensive applications from AI to hyperscale computing.
Ultra-Compact Form Factor
The 0.6mm design occupies over 70% less space than bulkier alternatives, making it the essential component for high-density servers and blade systems.
Dual-Mode Versatility
Ensure long-term flexibility with a connector that natively interfaces with both SAS and NVMe devices, offering proven compatibility with major controllers and backplanes.

Transformative Applications Across Industries
The SFF-8654 connector delivers transformative performance across the entire data ecosystem. In hyperscale data centers, it eliminates bottlenecks in 12G SAS arrays, enabling scalable, low-latency data lakes for platforms like the Dell MD1400 and IBM V7000. For rugged edge computing, its robust design maintains critical signal integrity in harsh industrial settings, and when paired with vibration-resistant M12 connectors, it ensures reliable operation for factory automation and IoT gateways. Furthermore, it serves as a critical enabler for high-performance cloud infrastructure, where it accelerates GPU and FPGA workloads on PCIe 4.0 riser cards and simplifies system design by supporting up to eight NVMe drives through a single, streamlined SlimSAS cable.
