Extending Power Cables
Although Supermicro chassis are designed to be efcient and cost-effective, some
compatible motherboards have power connectors located in different areas.
To use these motherboards it may be necessary to extend the power cables to the
motherboards. To do this, use the following chart as a guide.
Power Cable Extenders
Number of Pins Cable Part # Length
24-pin CBL-0042 7.9” (20 cm)
20-pin CBL-0059 7.9” (20 cm)
8-pin CBL-0062 7.9”(20 cm)
4-pin CBL-0060 7.9”(20 cm)
Front Panel to the Motherboard
The SC826 chassis includes a cable to connect the chassis front panel to the
motherboard. If your motherboard uses a different connector, use the following list
to nd a compatible cable.
