6Gbps MiniSAS Cables are Required
The industry had long realized that the interconnection of 20 meters and longer was required in order to enable all possible rack-to-rack connections in the datacenter. However, SAS-2.0 only supported 6 Gb/s over at most a 10 meter passive cable.
No active options were defined, and the Mini-SAS connector chosen for this standard did not have any extra pins that could be used to deliver power to the active cable circuitry. The SCSI Trade association and the T10 committee therefore took upon themselves the task of finding a way to incorporate active cable support into the SAS 2.1of the standard.
When comparing the Intersil Active cables in a real world BA application, while the active cable solution does add slight jitter compared to a short 2 meter passive cable, our tests show that the Intersil active cables provide 36% more Eye Height Margin at 10 meter, and 30% more Margin at 20 meter lengths.10X the length of a 2 meter passive cable.
Anyway, if you need MiniSAS Cables or other Passive or Active Cables, please contact a Sopto representative by calling 86-755-36946668, or by sending an email to info@sopto.com.
