I've tried the following four cables:

    1. "CBL-SFF8087OCR-05M" from http://store.3ware.com 
<http://store.3ware.com/status.cfm?confirmation=200712172508AMC821>
    2. "2136476-XXXXMM" from www.techcable.com
    3. iSAS-7P73/.5m from http://www.cs-electronics.com/
    4. *"4 SATA Discrete to SFF-8087 Reverse Breakout" from 
*http://tekramonline.com


Using the numbers assigned above:

        Fits AOC-SAT2-MV8     miniSAS Connector    Sheathing
        -----------------     -----------------    ---------
    1         Yes                 well made          None
    2         Yes                    ok              None
    3         Yes             hard to disconnect    1/2 way
    4         No                     ok             1/2 way


I thought #3 was going to be my favorite, but it was nearly impossible 
to get off the first time, after which I crimped the prongs a bit and 
then it worked better, but the bad experience discourages me from 
ordering more of them  In the end, I decided to go with #1.  But since 
the sprawl of cables is unsightly. I plan to sheath them myself
