the following connector layout diagram as a guide for cable connections:
a – Power cable connector
b – GPIO cable connector
c – Internal DP to DP cable connector
d – mini-SAS cable connector
Note: The power cable is integrated into the FLEX module, originating from the rear
power connector. The other 3 cables are supplied as part of the Thunderbolt 3 kit.
