This internal data cable from DIGITUS, type CABL, is designed to connect Serial-ATA (SATA) storage devices such as hard drives or optical drives (CD-/DVD-/Blu-ray burners) to the motherboard of a computer. The cable is intended for use inside computer enclosures and enables secure and reliable data transfer. It is compatible with the Serial ATA standard and downward compatible with SATA Rev. II and SATA Rev. I, ensuring use with a wide range of SATA-enabled devices.

Applications
This cable is typically used in IT and electronics technology, particularly during the installation or replacement of internal storage media in desktop computers and servers. It is suitable for connecting SATA hard drives, SSDs, and optical drives to the motherboard. The L-shaped design of one connector allows optimal placement when devices are installed horizontally, as the cable runs upward and saves space inside the enclosure.

Functions and Features in Detail
Both ends of the cable are fitted with SATA (7-pin) connectors. One connector is angled 90 degrees to the left (L-type), while the other is straight. This configuration allows flexible installation, especially when the connection point on the motherboard or drive is in a tight location. The cable length is 0.5 meters, which is sufficient for use in standard PC enclosures without being excessively long or too short.

Technology Explained Simply
The cable transmits data via the SATA standard, designed for high data transfer rates and a stable connection between storage device and motherboard. The backward compatibility with SATA Rev. II and I means the cable also works with older SATA devices that support lower data rates. The L-shaped connector reduces mechanical stress on the connections and prevents the cable from interfering or being unnecessarily strained inside the enclosure.

Compatibility and Accessories
The cable is designed for all SATA-enabled devices featuring a 7-pin SATA connector. It is not specific to particular manufacturers or models, but works with any device supporting the SATA standard. The cable is red, making it easily identifiable inside the enclosure. It is delivered in a poly bag, indicating simple packaging.

Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed by simply plugging the SATA connectors into the corresponding ports on the motherboard and the storage device. The angled connector facilitates mounting in tight spaces, especially when the device is installed horizontally in the enclosure. No additional tools or special mounting aids are required.

Operational Advantages
The L-shaped design of the connector ensures better positioning inside the enclosure and reduces the risk of cable tangling. The 0.5-meter cable length is optimal for typical use in PC enclosures, enabling neat cabling and clean installation. Compatibility with SATA Rev. II/I ensures broad usability across various systems.

Scope of Delivery
The product is delivered as a DIGITUS SATA connection cable, L-type Bu/Bu, 0.5m. It consists of a single cable in the described configuration.
