10Gtek PCIe 4.0 x16 to Dual SlimSAS 8i Host Adapter (S55N0216)

Cat. no. risers-cables-10gtek-s55n0216

Curator note

The host half of a SlimSAS link: it sits in a PCIe 4.0 x16 slot and breaks it out to two SFF-8654 8i ports. 10Gtek sells it for U.2 SSDs; paired with two 8i cables and the 10Gtek dual-8i slot adapter it extends a slot to a remote GPU. The board and BIOS must support x8x8 bifurcation on that slot. Gen4 through two adapters and cables is a long path, so force the slot to Gen3 in the BIOS if the GPU shows link errors.
