Description

Lenovo 4X97A87504 SR650 V3 Front Backplane NVMe Cable Kit

Overview

The Lenovo 4X97A87504 is a factory-new NVMe cable kit designed for the ThinkSystem SR650 V3 server configured with a 4x3.5" front drive backplane. When you're expanding or replacing the NVMe signal path between the front backplane and the system board, this kit provides the correct cables for that specific mechanical and electrical layout — eliminating the guesswork of sourcing generic replacements that may not route or terminate correctly in the SR650 V3 chassis.

Compatibility

Designed specifically for the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR650 V3 configured with the 4x3.5" front drive backplane. This kit is not interchangeable with the 8x2.5", 12x3.5", or rear backplane cable assemblies — confirm your backplane population and bay configuration before ordering. If your SR650 V3 is fitted with a different front bay count or drive form factor, a separate cable kit part number applies. Verify against your system's Configuration and Options Guide to match the exact backplane-to-board routing required for your NVMe server storage components.

Installation Notes

NVMe cable routing in the SR650 V3 is position-sensitive — connectors are keyed but the cable path through the chassis must follow Lenovo's prescribed routing guides to avoid pinch points and maintain airflow. Consult the SR650 V3 Hardware Maintenance Guide before disconnecting existing cables; document the as-installed routing before removal. The 4X97A87504 ships at approximately 10 lb packaged weight, which accounts for protective packaging — the cable assembly itself is lightweight. No special tooling is required beyond standard server-service hand tools.
