Cable routing for backplane signals (two processors)
In this section, you can find cable routings of backplane signals when two processors installed.
• Each backplane your server supports offers multiple signal connections. This section singles out the
signal connection from power connection for better understanding. For backplane power connection, see
“Cable routing for backplane power” on page 274.
• For the locations of backplane signal connectors on the processor board and adapters, see
“Processor-
board connectors for cable routing” on page 257
and “RAID and HBA adapter connectors” on page 254
for details.
• For more information about backplanes supported and their connectors, see
“Drive backplane
connectors” on page 250

4 x 3.5'' front drives
Use the section to understand the cable routing for signal cable connections for 4 x 3.5-inch drive
backplanes.
In the configuration of 4 x 3.5-inch front drives, your server supports the following front backplanes:
4 x 3.5'' SAS/SATA backplane
Use this section to understand the SAS/SATA backplane cable routing for server model with four 3.5-inch
front drives.
To connect cables for a 7mm drive backplane, refer to
“7mm drive backplane” on page 270.
To connect power cables for a backplane for standard 2.5-inch or 3.5-inch drives, refer to
“Cable routing for
backplane power” on page 274
.
To connect cables for M.2 drives, refer to
“M.2 drive backplane” on page 267.
To connect signal cables for a SAS/SATA backplane for standard 4 x 3.5-inch front drives, refer to the
following cable routing scenarios depending on your server configuration:
•
“Cable routing for onboard configuration” on page 351
• “Cable routing with an SFF HBA/RAID adapter” on page 354
