Mini-SAS HD

Amphenol's Mini-SAS High Density receptacle is the next generation SAS system; the SAS 2.1 standard meets SAS-3 next generation speed and density requirements that provides faster data transmission and more bandwidth for end users. The low-profile system provides 4X and 8X cable-plug options, and the external I/O connectors include eight sideband signals per 4X port, 1x4 configuration for up to 192Gb/s of total bandwidth. Mini-SAS HD is designed to save space with its increased density and reduced size as compared to the Mini-SAS 2.0, while following complacency with the standard. The Mini-SAS HD connector system has a 2-row, right angle connector with data rates reaching 12Gb/s per channel. Mini-SAS HD can support up to 24G per channel and can meet SAS-4 and PCIe Gen4/5.
