Lenovo 4X97A86165 SR665 V3 DW GPU CBL Option KIT

Lenovo 4X97A86165 SR665 V3 Dual-Wide GPU Cable Option Kit

Overview

The Lenovo 4X97A86165 is a GPU cabling option kit designed for the ThinkSystem SR665 V3 rack server, covering the dual-wide (DW) GPU configuration. When you're adding or repositioning double-wide GPU cards in an SR665 V3 chassis, the internal power and signal routing changes — this kit supplies the correct OEM cables so the installation meets Lenovo's supported wiring topology rather than relying on ad-hoc substitutes that can introduce compatibility or reliability risk in a production server environment.

Compatibility

Designed specifically for the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR665 V3 server platform in dual-wide GPU configurations. This kit targets SR665 V3 chassis only — do not use with SR665 (Gen 1 or Gen 2), SR655 V3, or other ThinkSystem platforms, as connector pinouts and cable routing paths differ between generations. Verify your chassis generation and GPU slot layout against Lenovo's SR665 V3 configuration guide before ordering.

Installation Notes

Install per the SR665 V3 Hardware Maintenance Guide for GPU option cabling. Lenovo server option kits of this type are intended for installation by qualified personnel familiar with high-density GPU server configurations. Incorrect cable routing in a DW GPU bay can block airflow, stress connectors, or result in an unsupported configuration that voids server warranty coverage. Confirm GPU riser and power cable compatibility with your specific SR665 V3 order code before commissioning.
