Lenovo 4X97B03873 SR650 V4 2.5IN Rear SAS Cable KIT

Lenovo 4X97B03873 SR650 V4 2.5-Inch Rear SAS Cable Kit

Overview

The Lenovo 4X97B03873 is a rear SAS cable kit designed specifically for 2.5-inch drive bay configurations in Lenovo ThinkSystem SR650 V4 rack servers. If you're expanding rear storage capacity or replacing a damaged signal path between the rear backplane and the system's SAS controller, this kit provides the correct factory-spec cabling for that specific bay geometry — eliminating the guesswork and fitment risk of sourcing generic SAS cables for a precision chassis layout. The 4X97B03873 is the OEM-matched replacement, ensuring correct connector orientation, cable routing, and clearance within the SR650 V4 rear bay assembly.

Compatibility

This cable kit is intended for the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR650 V4 server platform configured with 2.5-inch rear drive bays. It is not a universal SAS cable — connector type, cable length, and routing are matched to the SR650 V4 chassis. Before ordering, confirm your SR650 V4 is equipped with a rear 2.5-inch drive cage option, as SR650 V4 configurations without a rear bay will have no compatible mounting point for this kit. It is not validated for the SR650 V3, SR650 (Gen 1/Gen 2), or other ThinkSystem rack servers in the family. Verify your server's feature code and rear bay topology against Lenovo's SR650 V4 configuration guide before purchase.

Installation Notes

SAS cable routing inside a 1U/2U chassis is tight — seat connectors fully before securing cable clips to avoid signal errors under vibration. The 10 lb listed weight reflects packaged shipping weight, not the cable assembly itself. Sourced from Mexico (country of origin: MX); UNSPSC code 26121624 (Computer cables and cable assemblies).
