StarTech SATA18LA1 SATA Cable
Overview
The StarTech SATA18LA1 is an 18-inch SATA data cable featuring a standard (straight) male connector on one end and a left-angled male connector on the other. This configuration is critical for installations where rear-panel space is limited, such as in dense server racks or compact surveillance DVR/NVR chassis. It ensures a secure connection without bending the cable excessively, preventing signal degradation and physical stress on the SATA port. The 6Gbps bandwidth support means it's ready for modern storage devices.
Compatibility
This cable is designed for use with any motherboard or host controller featuring a standard SATA port and any SATA storage device (HDD, SSD, optical drive). It is suitable for connecting drives within servers, workstations, and surveillance recording systems where internal bay access is restricted. The left-angle connector is particularly useful for mounting drives parallel to the side panel of a chassis.
Installation Notes
The cable jacket is constructed from PVC, offering flexibility and durability for typical internal computer environments. The operating temperature range of 20°C to 80°C (68°F to 176°F) is standard for internal components. Ensure the left-angled connector is oriented correctly to fit the available space within your enclosure. The cable itself measures 18 inches (45.7 cm) in length, providing sufficient reach for most internal drive connections without excessive slack.
