IBM 00AN059 / 46W1499 – SAS Cable (SFF-8087 to SFF-8643)

• Part Number(s): 00AN059, 46W1499

• Description: Mini-SAS internal cable that bridges an SFF-8087 (controller/backplane) to SFF-8643 (higher-density) port — often used for newer SAS ports.

• Compatibility: Specifically noted for IBM System x3750 M4 server and similar x-series servers that use mixed SAS port types.

• Function: Connect RAID/SAS controller to storage backplane or expansion board.

IBM 00KF719 – 250 mm SAS HDD Cable

• Part Number: 00KF719

• Description: Internal SAS cable (approx. 250 mm length) designed for SAS hard drive connections in server chassis.

• Compatibility: Fits a broad range of IBM servers where a short SAS data/power connection is needed from drive to controller/backplane.

• Function: Provides direct SAS link for HDDs or SSDs inside the chassis.

IBM 00HV263 – 12 Gb/s SAS Expander Cable (SFF-8643 to SFF-8643)

• Part Number: 00HV263

• Compatibility: Used in storage expansions or midplane connections where Mini-SAS HD is required.

• Function: Connects expanders, RAID controllers, or backplanes with high-density SAS ports.

IBM 69Y1328 – SAS Signal Cable (for x3500 M3)

• Part Number: 69Y1328

• Description: Internal SAS “signal” cable used for connecting drive backplane or SAN connections specific to chassis design.

• Compatibility: Listed for IBM System x3500 M3 server families — often used between controller and backplane.

• Function: Transmits SAS data signals (as opposed to simple power).

Notes on SAS / SATA Cable Types

Connector Standards

• SFF-8087 (Mini SAS) – Common internal controller/backplane connector supporting 4 lanes of SAS/SATA (multi-device).

• SFF-8643 (Mini SAS HD) – Higher-density newer SAS standard common on modern RAID controllers and backplanes.

• Legacy SAS connectors like SFF-8482/8484 were historically used but have largely been superseded by Mini-SAS.

Compatibility Tips

• Always match connector type (SFF-8087 / SFF-8643) with the server’s controller/backplane ports.

• SAS cables are typically forward/backward compatible electrically, but the connector shape must fit.

• For SATA drives on a SAS backplane, SAS controllers generally allow SATA connectivity but not vice-versa (SATA controllers usually don’t support SAS drives).
