In an era where device miniaturization and data speed are equally critical, OIKWAN’s SlimSAS Series emerges as a transformative connectivity solution, blending ultra-slim form factors with enterprise-grade performance. Designed to address the growing demand for space-efficient, high-bandwidth links across industries, these cables redefine versatility—proving that “slim” doesn’t mean sacrificing power.
Unmatched Application Versatility Across Industries
The SlimSAS Series is engineered to thrive in diverse scenarios, solving connectivity challenges where space, speed, and reliability intersect:
Enterprise Data Centers & Cloud Infrastructure: As data centers scale to support AI, big data analytics, and hybrid cloud workloads, SlimSAS cables deliver seamless connectivity for SAS/SATA storage arrays, RAID controllers, and server backplanes. Their slim profile reduces cable clutter in dense rack setups, improving airflow and simplifying maintenance—critical for maximizing uptime in 24/7 operations. Supporting data rates up to 22.5 Gbps per lane (SAS-4), they eliminate bottlenecks in high-volume data transfer, from real-time backups to cloud-to-edge syncs.
Industrial Automation & IoT: In factory floors, robotics, and smart manufacturing environments, SlimSAS cables excel in harsh conditions. With ruggedized shielding against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and physical abrasion, they ensure stable signal transmission between sensors, controllers, and edge computing devices. Their compact design fits into tight spaces in industrial machinery, powering predictive maintenance systems, machine vision tools, and automated assembly lines without compromising performance.
Embedded & Edge Computing Devices: For compact embedded systems—including aerospace equipment, medical devices, and automotive infotainment systems—SlimSAS offers a space-saving alternative to traditional thick cables. Its lightweight, flexible design adapts to constrained layouts, while supporting high-speed data transfer for in-vehicle connectivity, portable medical diagnostics, and satellite communication modules.
High-End Consumer Electronics & Workstations: Content creators, engineers, and gamers benefit from SlimSAS’s ability to connect high-performance storage (such as U.2 NVMe SSDs) to motherboards in compact workstations and custom PCs. The slim form factor frees up internal space for better cooling, while its high-bandwidth support ensures smooth 8K video editing, 3D rendering, and immersive gaming experiences.
Engineering Excellence in Every Detail
OIKWAN’s commitment to innovation is evident in the SlimSAS Series’ design, which balances performance, durability, and usability:
Ultra-Slim, Flexible Build: With a diameter up to 40% slimmer than standard SAS cables, SlimSAS navigates tight spaces effortlessly, reducing cable management complexity in dense systems.
Enterprise-Grade Reliability: Gold-plated connectors ensure corrosion resistance and consistent signal integrity, while strain-relief boots prevent damage from repeated insertions—ideal for high-cycle applications.
Backward & Forward Compatibility: Supporting SAS-3, SAS-4, and PCIe Gen 3/4 protocols, the SlimSAS Series is future-proof, allowing seamless upgrades without replacing existing infrastructure.
Low Power Consumption: Optimized for energy efficiency, these cables minimize power loss, making them suitable for battery-powered devices and green data centers focused on sustainability.
