Description

Lenovo 4X97A90293 SR665 V3 2.5" Front Backplane NVMe Gen5 P-Cable

Overview

The Lenovo 4X97A90293 is the NVMe Gen5 power cable (P-cable) for the SR665 V3 2.5-inch front backplane bay configuration. In high-density AMD-based server builds, the front backplane assembly requires discrete power routing separate from the data path — this cable closes that gap, connecting the system's power delivery infrastructure directly to the F-BP1 NVMe Gen5 backplane. Without the correct P-cable, the front drive bay cannot be powered regardless of data cable installation. If you are building out or expanding NVMe Gen5 storage in an SR665 V3, 4X97A90293 is the specific part that completes the front backplane power circuit.

Compatibility

Designed specifically for the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR665 V3 server platform with the 2.5-inch front backplane (F-BP1) in a NVMe Gen5 drive configuration. This cable is not interchangeable with SR665 V2 or earlier SR650/SR630 front backplane assemblies — backplane connector layouts differ across generations. Verify your SR665 V3 chassis configuration and backplane part number before ordering; Lenovo's SR665 V3 supports multiple front bay configurations, and P-cable requirements vary by backplane variant.

Installation Notes

Route the P-cable after seating the NVMe Gen5 backplane but before installing drives — access to the backplane power connector is obstructed once the drive cage is populated. Follow Lenovo's SR665 V3 cable routing and management guidelines to avoid pinching or sharp-bending the cable near the chassis edge. This is a passive power cable with no configurable parameters; no firmware or BIOS changes are required upon installation.
