SAS Mini Receptacle for Internal Drive Bay Interconnects
The Molex 0757840126 is a 36-position SAS Mini receptacle from the iPass 75784 series, designed for surface-mount attachment to the PCB.
Board Layout Fit — SMT Footprint and the 36-Position Map
The 36 positions support a single 36-circuit lane for internal drive bay interconnects. The board guide feature adds two locating posts that register the receptacle to the PCB before reflow.
The base product number 075784 covers the iPass 75784 family, so a 36-position SMT SAS Mini receptacle from this series will share the same footprint and mating interface.
Mating Half and Field Replacement
This receptacle mates with the iPass 75784 plug (SAS Mini cable assembly or right-angle plug housing). The 36-position count is the standard SAS-2 internal connector — no keying variants within the iPass 75784 family for the same position count, so any 36-circuit iPass 75784 plug from Molex will engage. Gold-on-gold contact interface keeps the mating cycle life above 250 cycles; the board guide absorbs the misalignment during re-seating in a drive carrier.
