This is a Lenovo ThinkSystem SR635 SlimSAS (SFF-8654-8i) to 2x SlimSAS (SFF-8654-4i) Cable (P/N: 02JK008, SC17A50724). This specialized internal cable is designed for the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR635 rack server to provide high-speed data connectivity for NVMe, SAS, or SATA storage devices, particularly within configurations utilizing backplanes with multiple SlimSAS-4i connectors.
The cable features a single SlimSAS SFF-8654-8i connector on one end, typically connecting to a compatible RAID controller, HBA, or motherboard port that supports 8 lanes of PCIe or SAS/SATA. On the other end, it splits into two SlimSAS SFF-8654-4i connectors, allowing you to connect to two separate 4-lane backplane segments or NVMe drive cages. This enables flexible and high-bandwidth storage configurations, essential for maximizing the I/O performance of the SR635 server. As a genuine Lenovo component, it ensures optimal compatibility and reliable data transfer for your critical server storage.
