Black Box SATA01-020-MM Cable

These slim cables represent the latest advancement in internal interconnect technology and enable you to link Serial ATA high-speed hard drives, tape devices, optical drives, and controllers via the speedier serial bus of your PC. Use them, for instance, for simpler connections within Direct Attached Storage (DAS) and Network Attached Storage (NAS) environments.

Their slender build - which represents a departure from the much wider design of traditional ribbon cables - makes them a good fit for the condensed footprint of today's machines, and installation isn't a hassle either. What's more, Serial ATA technology offers hot-plugging capabilities and lower power consumption than older ATA interconnects.

Optimized for fast data transfers (at up to 150-MBps speeds), the 7-pin Serial ATA Data Cable depends on low-voltage differential pairs for transmitting and receiving data.

And cross talk isn't a worry because the Serial ATA connector has shielded grounding pins within its compact hood.
