SATA 22 Pin Male to SATA 7 Pin and 15 Pin Female

18" SATA 22-pin Male Internal to 7-pin SATA Cable with 15-pin SATA Female Power Cable, is used for connecting a SATA drive (like an HDD or SSD) to separate data and power sources.

Cable Details:

SATA 22-Pin Male:

Function: This end of the cable connects to the SATA drive. The 22-pin connector combines both the 7-pin SATA data connector and the 15-pin SATA power connector into one unified plug.

Pins: It consists of:

7 pins for data transmission.

15 pins for power supply.

7-Pin SATA Male (Data):

Function: This end of the cable is responsible for transferring data and connects to the SATA data port on the motherboard or an adapter card.

Pins: It has 7 pins and is used purely for data transfer.

15-Pin SATA Female (Power):

Function: This end of the cable is used for power and connects to a 15-pin SATA power supply from the PSU (Power Supply Unit).

Pins: It consists of 15 pins, which are responsible for delivering power to the SATA drive.

Usage:

This type of cable is commonly used when you need to split the data and power connections for a SATA drive. It allows for separate connections to the motherboard and power supply unit (PSU).

The 22-pin male end connects to the SATA drive, while the 7-pin data cable goes to the motherboard (or controller), and the 15-pin female power connector hooks up to the PSU.

Length:

The cable is 18 inches long, which offers more flexibility in routing within your PC case, especially if the drive bays and connectors are a bit farther apart.
