10 x 2.5'' NVMe backplane

Use this section to understand the cable routing of 10 NVMe front drives.

To connect power cables for a backplane for standard 2.5'' or 3.5'' drives, refer to Backplane power cable routing.

To connect cables for a rear NVMe/SAS/SATA drive backplane, refer to Rear NVMe/SAS/SATA drive backplane.

To connect signal cables, refer to the following cable routing scenario:

Cable routing for onboard configuration

The following illustrations and tables show the mapping relationship between backplane connectors and system board connectors for onboard configuration.
