Dedicated Dell R730XD RAID Cable

This Mini SAS HD SFF-8643 cable matches OEM part numbers 8T05V, 08T05V and CN-08T05V. It connects the PERC H730P RAID controller to the storage backplane inside a Dell PowerEdge R730XD 24-bay server. The dual A1 and B1 connector layout is specific to this server and controller combination. It is not a universal cable for other brands or desktop PCs.

Locking Connectors Prevent Disconnects

Each end uses a locking SFF-8643 plug that clicks into place to resist vibration inside the chassis. Installation requires aligning the A1 and B1 ports correctly on both the controller and backplane. The shielded cable length is optimised for the R730XD internal routing. Common issues arise when the part number is not verified against the original cable.

12Gbps Sustained Throughput

The cable supports SAS 3.0 at up to 12Gbps bandwidth for continuous enterprise storage operation. Multi-layer shielding maintains signal integrity during long-duration workloads on SAS and SATA drive arrays. It is built for stable transmission under constant load rather than short bursts. Performance depends on the connected controller and drives.
