Dell PowerEdge C2100 Server Cable

This genuine OEM cable connects the motherboard to the backplane inside Dell PowerEdge C2100 servers. It uses a Mini-SAS (SFF-8087) connector on one end and a SAS-A backplane connector on the other. The 33.8 inch length suits the chassis routing for this specific server model. Shielded copper conductors maintain signal integrity for storage traffic.

Suits C2100 storage maintenance or upgrades

IT technicians replacing a failed cable or adding drive bays in a PowerEdge C2100 will find the correct factory fit here. Builders working on other server platforms or generic enclosures cannot use the proprietary SAS-A backplane interface. The fixed 860mm length also prevents use in shorter or longer routing paths.

Mini-SAS (SFF-8087) to SAS-A connector pairing

This specific connector combination is the single specification that decides compatibility. The cable carries SAS and SATA signals at 6Gbps between the motherboard Mini-SAS port and the SAS-A backplane. Verify your C2100 backplane uses the SAS-A interface before ordering.

Questions about this item

What connectors are on the cable and do I need any extra adapters?

The cable has a Mini-SAS (SFF-8087) plug on one end and a SAS-A backplane plug on the other, both male. No extra adapters are required for a direct motherboard-to-backplane link.

My server uses 6 Gbps SAS drives — is this the right length and speed?

Yes. The cable is rated for SAS 6Gbps and SATA 6Gbps and measures 33.8 inches (860 mm), matching the Dell PowerEdge C2100 chassis routing.

Will the 6 Gbps rating actually be reached inside a PowerEdge C2100?

The cable is shielded and built to the SAS 6Gbps spec, so it will deliver the full 6 Gbps per lane when paired with a compatible controller and backplane in the C2100.
