Trace 10 claims to their source records
C236A · P236
TE Connectivity identifies SFF-8087 within its internal Mini-SAS connector family.
Claim scope: V39 catalogue-expansion identification fact only; not independent technical approval, fabrication data, wiring instruction, protocol guarantee or end-to-end compatibility proof.
Source links: S240 · Evidence trail → (private workspace)
C236B · P236
Amphenol product G40MR36B22BCEU identifies a 36-contact Mini-SAS internal connector compliant with SFF-8087.
Claim scope: V40 engineering-reference fact only; independent human review remains pending. This claim does not approve fabrication, rewiring, substitution, electrical safety, protocol support or end-to-end compatibility.
Source links: S257 · Evidence trail → (private workspace)
C236C · P236
Amphenol describes G40MR36B22BCEU as an internal right-angle board connector with a stainless right-key shell; its product description specifies a DIP cage and cap.
Claim scope: Exact product-page role and variant descriptors. Not a cable-end connector, a generic Mini-SAS substitution or an independently inspected keyed face.
Source links: S257 · Evidence trail → (private workspace)
C236D · P236
The G40MR C2 family drawing table distinguishes SMT connector contacts from DIP cage mounting and separately lists keying options.
Claim scope: Sheets 1–2 of the 2015-04-09 family drawing. The DIP cage does not make every electrical contact a through-hole pin. Exact full-suffix face geometry and current revision remain unverified.
Source links: S638 · Evidence trail → (private workspace)
C236E · P236
StarTech specifies SAS8087S450 with one 36-pin SFF-8087 end and four 7-pin SATA ends for connecting up to four SATA drives to a SAS controller or backplane.
Claim scope: Named cable role only. Not a universal breakout wiring map, SAS-drive approval or SATA power connection.
Source links: S639 · Evidence trail → (private workspace)
C236F · P236
The SAS8087S4R50 description and Applications identify a reverse cable from a Mini-SAS backplane to a SAS/SATA controller or motherboard.
Claim scope: Named intended application only. A conflicting feature bullet describes drives; that discrepancy is unresolved and not promoted into a compatibility verdict.
Source links: S640 · Evidence trail → (private workspace)
C236W · P236
Molex 75783-0140 specifies two rows and 0.80 mm mating-interface pitch. The application specification identifies 75783 as internal iPass, and the manufacturer SFF-8087 cable drawing names 75783 as its right-angle mating family.
Claim scope: Exact Molex 75783-0140 female right-angle 36-circuit board receptacle; internal iPass and SFF-8087 cable mating relationships separately documented.

C238C · P238
Amphenol describes G40H3132212HR as a vertical SMT 1x1 internal Mini-SAS HD board connector with a cap and anti-reverse wall.
Claim scope: Exact product-page role/orientation. The page warns that its image may not represent the exact part. No keyed-face geometry, footprint or mating approval inferred.

C238W · P238
TE brochure7-1773461-9 page2 explicitly specifies0.75mm contact pitch for its internal Mini-SAS HD SFF-8643 family, with LCP receptacle housing and copper-alloy contacts. Page3 lists internal connector examples separately from the external family.
Claim scope: Named TE internal Mini-SAS HD series only, not every family part. Do not transfer external SFF-8644 page6 part properties, cage port arrays or PCB termination pitch.
