Our take on the Dell 227HP External Mini SAS Cable

The Dell 227HP is an 8-meter external Mini SAS (SFF-8088) cable for connecting a server or storage controller to an external disk shelf or JBOD. Its long run is the main draw: most external SAS cables top out around 2 to 4 meters, so it suits racks where the host and storage sit far apart. It is a passive copper cable, so it carries the same signal as shorter cables but is bulkier to route. Buyers are mostly IT staff matching a specific Dell PowerVault or controller port rather than general shoppers.

Questions and answers

What does this cable connect?
It links an external Mini SAS (SFF-8088) port on a RAID controller or HBA to an external disk shelf or JBOD with the same connector. Both ends are SFF-8088.
Will it work with Mini SAS HD (SFF-8644) gear?
No. SFF-8644 is a different, smaller connector. This cable only fits older SFF-8088 ports, so check your controller and enclosure before buying.
Is an 8-meter passive SAS cable reliable?
SAS spec allows passive copper runs up to 8 meters for external links, so this is at the limit. Keep it away from sharp bends and power cables for a stable link.
Does it need power or drivers?
No. It is a passive copper cable, so there is nothing to install. Plug both ends in and the controller sees the enclosure.
Is it the right cable for a Dell PowerVault array?
It matches Dell's 227HP part number, used with several PowerVault and PERC setups. Confirm your controller and enclosure both use SFF-8088 ports.
Where is the Dell 227HP External Mini SAS Cable cheapest?
