Lenovo 4X97B03875 SR650 V4 2.5IN MID SAS Cable KIT

Lenovo 4X97B03875 SR650 V4 2.5-Inch Mid-Bay SAS Cable Kit

Overview

The Lenovo 4X97B03875 is a factory-specific SAS cable kit designed for the mid-bay 2.5-inch drive configuration in the ThinkSystem SR650 V4 rack server. When deploying or expanding storage in an SR650 V4 with mid-chassis 2.5-inch SAS drive bays, this kit provides the exact cable routing required to connect backplanes to the onboard or add-in SAS HBA/RAID controller — avoiding the mismatch and routing issues that arise from using generic or cross-generation cabling. The SAS interface ensures full-bandwidth connectivity between the backplane and controller, maintaining drive negotiation integrity across the storage stack.

Compatibility

Designed specifically for the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR650 V4 server platform in the 2.5-inch mid-bay drive configuration. This kit is not a universal SAS cable — it is a platform-matched assembly for the SR650 V4 chassis geometry and connector layout. Confirm your SR650 generation (V4 specifically) and bay position (mid, not front or rear) before ordering; cable kits for adjacent configurations or prior V3/V2 generations are separate part numbers and are not interchangeable. For server storage accessories compatible with other ThinkSystem platforms, verify the target chassis and bay position against Lenovo's SR650 V4 options guide.

Installation Notes

Route and seat all SAS connectors fully before securing cable management brackets — partial seating on SAS connectors is a common source of drive non-detection that does not always trigger an immediate fault. Weight of this kit is 10.00 lb, which reflects the packaged assembly; verify rack and cable management clearance in dense mid-plane configurations before installation. Country of origin is Mexico. UNSPSC commodity code 26121624 (electronic cables and wiring harnesses) applies for procurement classification.
