Shielded construction

Shielding helps protect the external data connection from electromagnetic interference.

What to know

This is an eSATA data cable, not an eSATAp powered cable. The host and storage device must both provide standard 7-pin eSATA data ports, and the external drive requires its own suitable power source.
