Genuine Dell DRAC Cable Kit for PowerEdge R900

This genuine Dell OEM ribbon cable kit provides the necessary connections for the Dell Remote Access Card (DRAC) in PowerEdge R900 servers. It includes the specific cables required to link the DRAC module to the system board for remote management functionality. The kit is designed for IT administrators maintaining or repairing Dell PowerEdge R900 hardware.

Replaces Damaged or Missing DRAC Ribbon Cables

This kit replaces the original ribbon cables (part numbers DX955 and UU993) if they are damaged, lost during maintenance, or degraded over time. The upgrade is worth it when the DRAC module loses connectivity, preventing remote console access, virtual media, or power management features. Without these specific cables, the DRAC card cannot communicate with the server's baseboard management controller.

Direct Fit Installation with Keyed Connectors

Installation involves routing the flat ribbon cables between the DRAC card and the designated headers on the system board inside the PowerEdge R900 chassis. The connectors are keyed to prevent incorrect insertion, ensuring proper pin alignment. What usually goes wrong is damaging the fragile ribbon traces by forcing a misaligned connector or creasing the cable during routing in the dense 4U server chassis.

Questions about this item

Does the RR779 kit include the DX955 and UU993 cables needed for the DRAC card in a PowerEdge R900?

Yes, the kit contains both the DX955 and UU993 ribbon cables for connecting the DRAC card in a PowerEdge R900 server.

How do I route the DX955 and UU993 ribbons to the DRAC card without bending them too sharply?

Lay each ribbon flat along the chassis guides, seat the connectors squarely on the DRAC card headers, and avoid creasing the cables when closing the server cover.
