IPPON MCIO X8 to 2xSFF-8639 U.2 65cm Cable

The IPPON CST-MU702-G5 is a data cable for servers and workstations that connects an MCIO X8 port on the motherboard or an expansion card to two U.2 (SFF-8639) drives. It is built for PCIe 5.0 signals at 32 GT/s over 8 lanes and is backward compatible with PCIe 4.0.

The MCIO (Mini Cool Edge IO) connector is compact, with a 0.6 mm contact pitch, and carries both differential and sideband signals. Each of the two U.2 connectors has a SATA power connector to feed the drive.

Key features

• MCIO X8 to two U.2 drives - One MCIO X8 port splits into two SFF-8639 connectors, so two U.2 NVMe drives can be connected to a single port.
• PCIe 5.0 and SAS 4.0 - The cable supports PCIe 5.0 signals at 32 GT/s and SAS 4.0 signals at 24Gbps, and is backward compatible with PCIe 4.0.
• Compact connector - A 0.6 mm contact pitch saves space in the equipment and suits cable-to-board and card-to-board applications.
• Power for the drives - Each U.2 connector has a SATA power connector that plugs into the power supply cable and feeds the drive.
• 65 cm length - Long enough to reach from the board port to the drive cage inside a server or workstation case.
