Lenovo 4X97A90518 Thinksystem SR665 V3 Intrusion Cable

Lenovo 4X97A90518 ThinkSystem SR665 V3 Intrusion Cable

Overview

The Lenovo 4X97A90518 is a factory-new intrusion detection cable designed for the ThinkSystem SR665 V3 rack server platform. Intrusion cables connect the chassis intrusion switch to the system board, enabling the server to detect and log unauthorized physical access to the chassis — a prerequisite for environments where physical tamper evidence is required by policy or compliance frameworks. If you are replacing a damaged cable or provisioning a spare for a service depot, 4X97A90518 is the correct Lenovo-sourced part for this platform.

Compatibility

Designed specifically for the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR665 V3 rack server. The SR665 V3 is a dual-socket AMD EPYC-based 2U platform. This cable is not a universal fit — verify your chassis generation before ordering. SR665 (non-V3) and other ThinkSystem models (SR650, SR630, SR860) use different intrusion cable part numbers and are not compatible with 4X97A90518.

Installation Notes

Intrusion cables on the SR665 V3 route from the chassis side panel switch header to a dedicated connector on the system board. Consult the server maintenance documentation for your SR665 V3 before replacement — the connector locking tab requires careful release to avoid damage. No special tools are required beyond standard ESD precautions. The cable ships at 2.00 lb, which accounts for packaging; the cable assembly itself is lightweight and compact.
