Genuine Dell M6800 LVDS Ribbon Cable

This genuine Dell TDM79 ribbon cable connects the motherboard to the LVDS display panel inside the Precision M6800 mobile workstation. It is built for technicians or owners repairing a 17.3-inch screen assembly. Buyers with an EDP panel variant cannot use this part.

OEM Build Quality for LVDS Panels

The cable uses Dell OEM construction with connectors keyed for the M6800 LVDS socket and panel interface. It supports both HD+ 1600 x 900 and FHD 1920 x 1080 native resolutions. Matching the original part number TDM79 or alternates VAR10 and DC02C005300 ensures correct pinout and fit.

Direct Replacement Restores Display Function

Installing this cable replaces a damaged or faulty ribbon to restore video signal to the LCD without adapter boards or firmware changes. No additional brackets, screws or software are included in the package. The part addresses only the LVDS video link for the specified resolutions.

Questions about this item

What LVDS cable standard does the TDM79 use and what resolutions does it support?

The TDM79 carries LVDS signals for 17.3 inch panels at 1600 x 900 HD+ and 1920 x 1080 FHD resolutions.

What physical clearance and connector layout does the TDM79 need inside the M6800 chassis?

The ribbon is built for the 17.3 inch M6800 lid assembly and mates with the LVDS panel connector on one end and the motherboard socket on the other.

How is the TDM79 installed and which step do people often get wrong?

Remove the bezel, disconnect the old LVDS ribbon from the panel and motherboard, route the new TDM79 through the hinge channel, and seat both connectors fully; the common error is leaving the panel-side latch unlatched, which causes a blank or flickering screen.
