The SFF-8654 SLIMSAS 8I PCIe 4.0 Cable is part of the SlimSAS Series range and is supplied in stock from our factory in Dongguan. Finished assemblies are coiled to a radius that respects the flex specification and labelled at both ends on multi-channel products.
Specifying the SFF-8654 SLIMSAS 8I PCIe 4.0 Cable

Every unit is inspected before dispatch and ships with a test report, so incoming inspection becomes a document check rather than a re-test. Material compliance is documented against RoHS and REACH.
Key features
- Shield terminated to the connector shell around the full circumference
- Double-shielded construction for stable differential signalling
- Custom lengths, pin assignments and hood types built to your drawing
- Strain relief designed to keep mechanical load out of the termination
- Test report with continuity, dielectric strength and insulation resistance results
- Flex-rated constructions available for drag-chain applications

Quality assurance
KINKUO operates an ISO 9001:2015 certified quality management system. Cable stock is inspected on receipt for stranding, shield coverage and jacket concentricity; finished assemblies are tested for continuity, dielectric strength and insulation resistance, and high-speed types are verified with TDR impedance analysis. Materials are RoHS and REACH compliant.
Selecting the right SlimSAS Series
Specify the pin assignment explicitly rather than accepting a generic one-to-one mapping. Interfaces that reuse the same shell standard rarely use the same wiring, and a cable that is electrically correct but wired differently is among the hardest faults to diagnose.
Plan the strain relief at both ends. Load transferred into the termination eventually fractures individual conductors, and the damage almost always begins at the cabinet entry where the bend is tightest.
Packaging and delivery
Finished assemblies are coiled to a radius that respects the flex specification and secured so the assembly cannot move in transit. Both ends are labelled on multi-channel products, and the test report for the batch accompanies the shipment.
Where a programme runs to a schedule rather than a single order, call-off arrangements keep material allocated against your forecast and reduce the risk of an unplanned gap in supply. Tell us the annual volume when you enquire and we will confirm what can be reserved.
Common questions
Do you supply cable assemblies with a specific pin-out?
Yes. Send the pin assignment and we will build to it rather than applying a generic mapping.
How are the finished assemblies packed?
Coiled to a radius that respects the flex specification, secured against movement, and labelled at both ends on multi-channel products.
What documentation ships with the order?
A batch test report covering continuity, dielectric strength and insulation resistance, plus TDR impedance data for high-speed types on request.

Why source this part from KINKUO
We manufacture rather than resell, which means the part you receive is built on our own calibrated equipment by the same team that engineers it. That removes the margin stacking of a trading chain and keeps lead times predictable. Established in 2010, we supply slimsas series to customers across South China, East China, Japan, Europe and North America.
